Nastya Moiseenkova is a multimedia artist and musician, whose work primarily centers around identity, emotion, and mental health. Her work includes, but is not limited to painting, music, college, stop motion, and video art. Her paintings are auto/biographical in a way, but not solely so; they depict what’s below the surface. Emotions are complex and often non-linear, and while trying to understand how to materialize and localize them by incorporating both abstract and physical references, she plays with the concept of association. Merging analog and digital, scraps of collage pieces with video, distorting music into nostalgic soundtracks, intuition plays a big role in her work.

VESSEL is an exploration of the body in a fragmented form – depicted on a canvas which spans floor to ceiling. It is a map; a play of memory, space, and association. Between nostalgia for what once was, the present, and the fleeting, often surreal nature of memory. The color and composition of this nostalgic cartography are personal to the artist, but the location and feelings which they inspire invite observers to immerse into the VESSEL.
