Anastasia Egorova (Astrakhan, URSS 1981)
It all began on a school visit to a local brick factory when I was about 8 years old. That place and clay have captivated me. As a child, attending piano classes at the local art school, I secretly watched my buddies through the painting class door key hole and dreamed about being on their place.
I didn't start learning ceramics until I moved to the Mediterranean island of Majorca in 2005. In 2007 I began exploring my creative language via photography, ceramics and jewellery. After several years of training in traditional ceramic techniques my body of work took direction towards conceptual art projects and photography.
In 2018 I had my first solo exhibition of conceptual ceramics and photography project "Surrender" at s'Escorxador, Marratxí, Majorca. Afterwards I exhibited in New York (2019 Here now space), at Nitx de l'art in Felanitx(2020) Majorca, at IncArt festival in Inca (2021, 2022) Majorca, at Kulturfinca Son Bauló (2021-2022) Majorca and at Casa de Cultura in Felanitx, Majorca (2022), Art festival AN Campos, Majorca (2023).
Currently I work at my studio situated in Majorca island, Spain.
