Artist
Alexandra Ravskaya
Stockholm, Sweden
Born in Odesa and raised by the Black Sea, Alexandra Ravskaya trained at the Odesa Art Lyceum and the Odesa State Academy of Building and Architecture before settling in Stockholm. She paints mainly with tempera, acrylic and crayon on canvas, mixing figurative scenes with abstract and folk-art elements and a naive, spontaneous charm. Her work explores harmony between people and nature, inspired by Fra Angelico and Botticelli as well as Swedish modernists Bror Hjorth and Jockum Nordström.
