In her acrylic paintings and more recent wool collages, Inna Moshkovich seeks to use her constantly evolving experiments with color, light, and texture to utilize the communicative properties of visual art. The artist renders her natural subject matter into abstracted fields of intense texture and hue, creating an environmental canvas intended to leave a mark on the senses. The dramatic atmospheric quality that characterizes much of Moshkovich’s work not only reflects the artist’s personal history growing up in the volatile climate of the Ukraine, but serves to express the artist’s emotions and her desire for a connection with the viewer.
Born in Odessa, Ukraine, Inna Moshkovich now resides in Sydney, Australia. Her overall body of work, which spans from Impressionistic oils and geometric abstraction, to innovative collages of mixed mediums is tied together by a persistent interest in creating layers of light and texture. Moshkovich has exhibited her work in and around Sydney. Her new works were featured in the Florence Biennale 2007, Italy, and in February 2008 as part of a group exhibition titled Individuals at Galleria Mentana, in the centre of Florence, Italy.
