Bio

Anna Yakusheva is a Ukrainian artist-researcher living in the UK and working in the style of metamodernism. She was born in 1991.

After achieving master’s degree as an academic artist and an interior design, she has the daring and skill to experiment with traditional and contemporary approaches to representation. Her work explores the human psycho-emotional state and ego projections as a tool for self-discovery and liberation from illusions. In 2023, Anna created "Quantum Collage" technique, in which she combined light watercolour and collage techniques in an effort to convey certain messages and coded ‘‘signals’’ to the viewer for their inner transformation. In her work she uses recognisable images as alternative meanings for each of her viewers, onto which each projects their own experiences charting their own unique life path. Each of her works, like each person and their destiny, can be viewed for as long as the retina of an eye that never repeats itself.

Her works are in a private collection in many countries.

"And you are you?"

2023

GBP 950

"And you are you?"

watercolour, ink

44 X 37 X 0.1 cm

This work is to emphasise the significance of resisting the lure of ego and the mind's projections, breaking free from dependence on external opinions, societal norms, illusions, and the artificial constructs of our world. It serves as a reminder of the importance of detaching actions from emotional biases, disregarding external critics and internal attitudes, and acting authentically, rather than succumbing to self-deception and betrayal in pursuit of acceptance and validation. It sheds light on the illusory nature of our comfort zones and the ways in which we betray ourselves by comparing our lives to others.

"Ego"

watercolour, mirror, magazine clippings

56 X 75 X 0.1 cm

To know the truth is to know oneself, to know sincerity. Sincerity is a simple and at the same time complex human quality. Simple - because this feature is inherent in us from birth. But being an adult, climbing the ladder of life, we learn about the opposite of this quality. When our ego takes over. When we begin to succumb to outside influences, forget about our real selves, imitate and try on ourselves imposed social canons. And at this moment, in the pursuit of illusory happiness, the worst thing happens - we stop hearing our heart. We stop being sincere.
