Early on, Katerina Belkina (b. 1974) knew about her exceptional talent to see the world through different eyes. Born in Samara in the southeast of European Russia, she was raised in a creative atmosphere by her mother, a visual artist. Her education at the Art Academy and the School for Photography of Michael Musorin in Samara gave her the tools to visualize her ideas. Exhibitions of her sublime, mystic self-portraits ensued in Moscow and Paris. Katerina Belkina was nominated for the prestigious Kandinsky Prize (comparable to the British Turner Prize) in Moscow in 2007. In addition, she won the International Lucas Cranach Award 2015 and the prestigious Hasselblad Masters Prize in 2016.
Towards the upcoming Discovery Art Fair in Frankfurt this November, where Katerina will exhibit limited editions from two of her latest projects, we enjoyed interviewing this fascinating artist and presenting three of her series, which made waves in the art world.
