Olesia Korolevskaia (SiaLes) is a Visual Artist based in Germany whose work explores states of transition and transformation through the metaphor of water. In her works, water manifests itself in various physical and visual forms.
Working with photography, moving images and mixed media, she creates poetic visual spaces in which light, colour, pigment and particles interact in continuous, fluid processes.
Her work is inspired by post-impressionism, surrealism, kinetic art and the inner world of the human being. Olesia explores movement, dissolution and connection, revealing subtle inner landscapes and inviting the viewer to a contemplative and sensory experience.
Her practice is a reflection on states: on transitions, on the dialogue between calm and power, form and dissolution. Each work is perceived as a living process that changes, deepens and evolves alongside the artist.
