The documentary introduces us to the young artist LERA (27) from Minsk, her artistic career, the ups and downs she faced as an artist in Poland, and her unique approach to painting. She sustains herself through her craft, using classical oil paint to create intangible works. Throughout the documentary, I asked her numerous personal questions about her lifestyle, her artistic process, her techniques, the beginnings of her career, her integration journey, her arrival in Poland, and how she managed to be independent.
The series of paintings switches between images of her everyday life and landscapes and illustrates the symbiosis between her real experiences and the world in her paintings. The choice of a botanical park as a setting merges with the motifs and compositions in Lera’s artwork.
