The exhibition "Fingertips between steel and color" by Margarita Ardo.

The art of Margarita Ado whose creative work represents classical realism attract the attention of spectators because of registering the environment in a sensitive way, minimalist reasoning and interpretations of the daily routine and dreams. These are reflections of the contemporary way of seeing the world and reasoning which are impactful, bright, and involving. The relationship between ‘myself’ and the environment is created by Margarita Ado while discovering narratives of painting in the trifles of life as well as memories emerging from the past. With her realistic painting, the artist has no fear concerning the pure positive – and sometimes even sentimentally rendered – sensitiveness of the environment. The typically brave response of Margarita Ado is that creative progress is permanent, and movement is the stimulus of the entire life. When one feels like taking a break from painting, it is high time one got involved in the plastic art of the sculpture.

In the words of the author: “To touch with your eyes closed, or to look without touching? Whatever is seen on the surface, and what can we feel down there, inside? What will happen if we mix something that is not to be mixed? This eternal riot inside the head leads ideas and creating hands around the most secluded corners of the soul, thus helping to create one’s reality or properly benefit from the arising opportunities. Movement and creative work are the stimulus of the entire life. One should not restrict oneself with what has already been achieved, one should try things out, experiment, take a look at the environment with a shade of humor or soft irony, to render serious things in a casual way, while not losing the depth or their essentiality. The works of painting and sculpture presented at this exhibition will allow the spectator to touch the world I have been creating, the world which is softly balancing between steel and colors…”
