Monya Rowe Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition of new paintings by Anastasiya Tarasenko titled Let Me Tell You a Story. For her third solo exhibition at the gallery, Tarasenko has created a mythological world comprised of dragons, castles, sea serpents, pegasuses and witches, along with echoes of the fairytales Hansel and Gretel and Rapunzel: “I am exploring our contemporary culture as it intersects with ancient tropes of folk tales, mythology and heroic legends. In all essentials, we are the same as our ancestors, plagued by the same problems and inhabiting the same failing bodies. I lay our desires and vulnerabilities bare.”
