My art is a dialogue between psychology and painting — a space where inner conflicts, fears, and existential questions take visual form. Drawing on psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy, I explore identity, time, and the fragile boundary between illusion and reality. Each work reflects an emotional experience — despair, anxiety, temptation, or the search for self — embodied through vivid contrasts of light, shadow, and symbolic imagery. My goal is to reveal what is usually hidden and to give voice to the invisible and unspoken aspects of human existence.
Alisa Chernova enters the contemporary art scene not as a painter alone but as a psychotherapist turned artist, who has transformed the consulting room into the canvas. Few artists embody with such clarity the conviction that painting may serve as a visual laboratory for human subjectivity, where the fragmentary self can be staged, tested, and reconstituted. Her background as a Gestalt therapist infuses every brushstroke with the weight of psychological encounter: each canvas is not a representation but a session, not a depiction but a dialogue.
