Artist's Statement

This series reflects an ongoing exploration in perception and its cousin, perspective. Taken from an "ant's eye view", these photographs distort perspective and scale to expose the mundane-- the inches become yards and the regular becomes colossal; tiles become fields and the toilet becomes monumental. Collected toiletries and personal items reveal a portrait of the inhabitants. The undersides of sinks, the pipes and the leads to the toilet that are seen anew create another perspective on the everyday.

Artist's Statement

Sabrina Tilikevich was born in the Ukraine and came to Brooklyn NY when she was barely a year old. She comes from an artistic background, where her grandfather was an artist. She has studied painting and modern art. Originally she felt she would go into graphic design but she realized early that she preferred to work with her hands. Her medium is acrylic and experimental media. She chooses to work with this as opposed to oils because she works fast and she needs mediums that work with her. She has had many shows from 2004 to the present including venues in Brooklyn NY and Manhattan.

Bio

I am not an artist of many words. I choose to let my work speak for me. I choose to work with experimental media mixed with acrylic to get my work to come to life. I like to find the beauty in the unusual and I am not afraid to be dark. I have been told my work is cutting edge, but I leave that the observer. My objective is to bring the arts back to the people, let them experience the passion I feel when I created, and possibly let loose their own feelings of passion for the arts. The unusual is only the beginning.
