Petrova Nadya

A graduate of the School of Contemporary Art “Free Workshops” of MMOMA and the British Higher School of Design, Nadia works in two media: knitting and drawing, united by the idea of eternal repetition of a subject or motif, a kind of addictive dependence and the impossibility to be satiated and satisfied with one product, and the need to delve into an endless exploration of the subject through these two media. Themes she works with: contemporary mythology and folklore; tactile sensuality; the body and movement; socio-social upheaval.
