Nastasya Chudakova: Soviet childhood - not everyone will understand, not many will remember (55 photos)
Nastasya paints beautiful and cozy works with fragments from her childhood and life in Kaluga.
Life in a certain place almost always leaves its mark on a person. Especially if this life took place in childhood, which already in adulthood can sometimes cause strong nostalgia, sometimes so powerful that it can even affect creativity if you are an artist. Something similar happened to Nastasya Chudakova, who began to create incredibly beautiful and cozy works with fragments from her childhood and life in Kaluga, Russian Federation.
Her works are full of nostalgic memories, which, quite possibly, will be close to those who grew up in Slavic or post-Soviet countries. Nastasya's artistic works include children, adults and many animals.
Through her works, the artist also tries to tell certain stories; in addition, the Russian woman often tries to hide Easter eggs in her detailed paintings, which the viewer, if desired, can look for on their own.
So, let's quickly start viewing the images and plunge into the nostalgic world of Nastasya and many other people from the former USSR, whose childhood is partially reflected in these bright works of the artist.
