Dreamlike Journey-Safina Ksenia
by Metra Lin
2013

Introduction

Looking at Safina’s paintings reminds me of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The viewer seems to become Alice, leaping into the rabbit hole and embarking on a marvelous journey of discovery. This voyage might lead into the long course of history, or it might enter a fantastical and mysterious world. The viewer can set aside personal subjectivity and boundaries, immersing fully in the fresh sensory realm she has created.
