The Summer That Never Was

Maria Vorobyeva
May 2 — June 6, 2025
Gallery "Triumph"
The exhibition brings together digital and painterly works, grounded in an exploration of illusory landscapes and a dissection of the metaphysical aspects of nature.
Triumph Gallery presents a solo exhibition by Maria Vorobyeva titled The Summer That Never Was. The exhibition brings together digital and painterly works, grounded in an exploration of illusory landscapes and a dissection of the metaphysical aspects of nature.

Deliberately rejecting traditional perspective and familiar systems of coordinates, Maria works with the architecture of the imaginary. The hyperrealistic architectural compositions in her digital works exemplify "paper architecture": she constructs refined, almost sterile spaces in which fragments of architecture overlap, forming complex, labyrinth-like structures.

The hyperrealistic architectural compositions in her digital works exemplify "paper architecture": she constructs refined, almost sterile spaces in which fragments of architecture overlap, forming complex, labyrinth-like structures.
In her paintings, Maria intentionally abandons order, allowing nature to take over the space, evoking the compositional principles of medieval book miniatures. In creating her works, the artist draws inspiration from botanical atlases and ancient myths, transforming these motifs into intricate compositions in which the emergence of certain images and symbols resonates with the irrational and the mystical.

Both her digital and painterly works are united by the absence of any trace of human presence within the depicted spaces. The deeper one immerses oneself in these intricately constructed architectural labyrinths or lush overgrowths of wild gardens, the stronger the unsettling sense becomes that no signs of biological life will be found here. This feeling embodies the artist’s intention to depict not external but internal landscapes—landscapes of the imagination, where the real and the unreal intertwine.
