Artist Bio: Valeriya Simantovskaya, a Russian-Armenian-based artist, creates striking illustrations where silent, enigmatic figures emerge against minimal backgrounds. Her works captivate with their ambiguity and subtle storytelling, focusing on intimate human connections like hand-holding or faces touching. The poses evoke imagination, blending with the environment in delicate harmony. Neutral tones or pastel contrasts enhance the visual impact, while sharp silhouettes and sensual movements, such as a simple hug or intertwined hands, convey powerful emotions.
