ArtistΒ Ekaterina PanikanovaΒ was born in St. Petersburg in 1975 andΒ recently opened her third solo show atΒ Sara Zarin GalleryΒ in Rome featuring a number of ink and acrylic paintings on grids of vintage books. Reflecting the age of the books, Panikanova creates imagery suggesting aspects of memory or old snapshots commingled with illustrations of birds, antlers, baked goods, and lace. To compliment the installations she also created a number of glass and lead pieces you can seeΒ here.
The exhibition is titledΒ CrepuscoliΒ (Twilights).
