Voices of Power and Conscience

Frida turns Soviet visual language inside out, using its order and color to speak about humanity rather than ideology.

Symbols of control and faith—hammer and sickle, propaganda red—collide with modern icons of connection and protest: 5G, DNA, LOVE. It suggests that every era decorates its dogma.

The central figure, both defiant and exposed, reclaims that aesthetic to declare that the new ideal is human, not ideological.

Where Power Meets Humanity

How Fragile We Are treats vulnerability as endurance. Blue carries the weight of distance and loss; gold holds what refuses to break. The surface looks weathered but still gives light, suggesting that identity survives through damage. It is less a tribute than a quiet act of witness—a reminder that strength often arrives disguised as fragility.

Heritage and Modernity

Psychological Symbolism

Grotesk drifts between memory and irony. Drawn in pencil and edged with gold, it reads like a map of thought where pills, words, and small figures float in and out of meaning. The Cyrillic note (ПОСЛАНИ С УРОКА КАРАТЕ), ”message from karate lesson, feels intentionally odd, almost like a memory fragment or an ironic echo. But this fits with the rest of the artwork’s collage of words and symbols, a trace of control from another time. Gold fills the breaks and seams, turning damage into design. It becomes a quiet portrait of endurance made from fragments that refuse to vanish.

Between Place and Mind

Summer in Sweden 2022 captures the quiet geometry of the mirrored sauna sculptures at Artipelag. The painting studies how light, form, and reflection define space. It turns a familiar scene into an arrangement of color and texture that suggests calm, structure, and the stillness of a northern summer.

Abstract painting titled 'Summer in Sweden 2022' by artist Milla Petrova. The artwork features gemoetric shapes inspired by a gold-color sauna sculpture at Artipela in Stockholm, painted in soft gold, bue, green, and red tones with textured surfaces.
