This was my first art-project in an orphanage (2012). I did it to get to know children better. My friend printed portraits on watercolor paper that teens can then paint them.
Now more details about each...
Eugene, 15 (above) has created her collage with the slogan "Thank you for life." When a person comes to the realization of gratitude for life, this is wisdom. Eugene went from a philosophical point of view to the opening theme. She drew a man and a woman, from whom he went to life in all its many manifestations. Here and pilgrims, and suffering, and love, children, the difficulties and the world of dreams ... All life, it is. Ornament of the portrait resonates with ornament on the word "Life". This character reveals what is hidden in it, this is the life, the energy and beauty. Eugene is very creative and thoughtful nature. Space portrait she left free. Eugene does not live in a dream world. She tries to live in the present and with interest examines the real world. And it is an internal understanding of things gives her strength.
Lida, 12. Lida has created a very thoughtful design collage, and location, and color, all thought. This is her artistic talent, which is manifested in her photographs. Almost exclusively on the collage, women and animals, it is more gentle peace to close. She is very sensitive and vulnerable nature. Helps her life to save itself it was her imagination, her creativity. She have to choose a creative profession where she could express herself. Then her work would save her life.
Ksenia, 15. Portrait was monochrome, very discreet, but! With a thin red line. And it means a lot ... What's in it is the same thread is there, but so far it is very suppressed and hidden. A collage on the abundance ekzaltirovannyyh persons tells us about her hidden identity, which is very bright and unusual. She dreams to manifest. But the dog, it seems to me, a symbol of friendship, loyalty and reliability.
Vasily (16). Collage on to say that he is in a very crisp and clear, apt systematize. At the same time, he is not inclined to be frank and open with us. I was also struck by the brilliance, the blue sky, the sun and the tree with apples ... ) I think it's great! The abundance of technology, we have concluded that it is likely Vasily will be an auto mechanic. Clearly the predominance of red ... and in cars, and in the roof of the house ... The red color is very strong, flashy, fiery. Vasily would like to be stronger, to be special and successful ...
Anastasia (12) is the eldest of 5 children in her family (only she and her sister at the orphanage). In this I see a parallel with the huge number of puppies on her collage. Anastasia chose animals, not people. Probably because they are more understandable to her. They are all simple. And yet, it feels to them like an adult, sure. Nastia did collage portrait of the very first, quickly, impulsively, almost without thinking. While her world is very simple, it does not delve into the complexities of human relationships, or not ... On the collage is the inscription "Love is in need of care." I think she is missing most of this care. Nastia has dressed herself in black and blue wrote, "I am." I think she has an acute lack of attention to his personality, care and love. But these experiences in her unconscious, they are in the subconscious and occur spontaneously.
Ksenia (12) very stable, balanced person. She knows to aspire - her favorite horses, dogs and cats, a car, a stylish and beautiful life, love ... Everything is clear enough versatile. There is a positive acceptance of self (or inner desire for this, which is also excellent). I think all Ksenia dreams - real. It does not fly off the ground.
Victoria (15). Everything is clear and simple. Family. She wants to be a wife and mother and have a happy family.
Sasha (17) is an adult. Dreams behind, and in front of the specific objectives. And life in his view it is a road, traffic, and development. It is no accident that he wants to build a road. It will pave the way for which he will go and be able to pass other ... literally and figuratively ... It is difficult to prevent, to confuse. He sees new horizons and consciously chooses people and information. Sasha wants to learn English, and go where the road people are helped to push forward, and do not interfere with their pits and bumps. Sasha is no ambiguity, he still clearly an adult. The man standing at the beginning of a long road. He didn't want to paint the portrait.
And this is I am ))) We were on an equal footing, and did everything together.
Also I made video about the process
