By weaving mysterious imagery and forms, Ilia aims to create a dialogue with her viewer. Through the use of reflection and form she draws the observer into actively participating in her imagery. Our life experiences influence our view of our world, and Ilia’s interactive mirror paintings create a unique viewing experience each time.
In addition to painting, her sculptural media and techniques explore concepts in a unique manner. From the bizarre to the beautiful, she loves share colourful stories and ideas through dynamic and sometimes gravity defying form.
A degree in Industrial Design combined with 30 years of graphic design and fine art, enables her to explore all manner of media without limitation.
Her manifesto lies in curiosity, and the delight of sharing her excitement, joy and discoveries along the way. Ilia’s creations alternate between both light hearted and persona experiences, while maintaining an experimental aspect.
