ARTIST’S STATEMENT

Dina's drawings and paintings follow the school of Analytical Abstractionism (see www.analytical-art.com).

It employs a process of non-programmed creating forms from particular to whole, analysing the appearing image rather than synthesizing it. Try to understand not "what", but "how" it is done.

Be interested not in the face of the clock, but in the inner mechanism to understand progression of time.
