…I feel as if Nadiya’s work has taken me on an alternative whistle stop tour of the capital; a tour of a begotten London miraculously silenced, captured in snap shot frames of time standing still. Latest and well-known earlier works will be available to public from 12 – 28 September 2013.In her works, Nadiya sees London as expressive essence that takes on different dimensions and identities, delivered through a subtle balance of intensity, vibrancy and dynamics of the images.More than often this vision of city expression as a being encompasses structures, humans, vehicles and other creations that collectively make an uncensored depiction of daily life in the city. Capturing energy of this collective formation serves as a great source of challenge and fascination for the Artist. “…This somewhat magic ability to pacify the pandemonium has been executed in rather uncanny detail, reminiscent of the veritable old master technique – a certain style that reasserts the once stirring power of these builds. Snapshots of Finsbury Circus inter-changed with sights of heritage and familiarity such as Oxford Street, St Pauls and the National Gallery have not just been copied for picture postcard compatibility, Nadiya is a modern day flaneur, living and breathing her city – more importantly flexing her love for this city”, writes Zoe-Lee SkeltonNadiya Pavliv-Tokarska lives and works in London, UK
