"Fountain" – Where Mermaids Reign
In the heart of the city, a grand fountain became more than just a landmark—it became home to a lively troupe of mermaids. Enchanted by its cascading waters, they made it their playground, dancing and frolicking until their presence became an inseparable part of the city's legend.
This intricate artwork captures the joy, movement, and mystery of these mythical beings, blending ornate detailing, vibrant marine motifs, and a sense of endless motion. A fusion of fantasy and urban mythology, it invites viewers to believe in the unseen magic hidden in everyday places.
Acerca de Natalia Kolpakova
Natalia Kolpakova is an award-winning graphic artist from Kyiv, Ukraine, now based in Falmouth, Cornwall, UK.Working between illustration, design, and contemporary textile art, she creates large square silk works that exist both as wearable paintings and as wall-based artworks.Her practice is rooted in surreal, layered visual storytelling, where myth, memory, dream logic, and subtle psychological tension come together in richly inhabited image-worlds.Drawn to silk for its associations with intimacy, elegance, tradition, and transformation, Kolpakova uses the medium to build poetic spaces that feel both personal and theatrical.In this body of work, each square composition becomes a kind of inner room: a living space for thoughts, symbols, creatures, and emotional traces.Rather than depicting home as a fixed physical place, her works suggest home as a shifting mental and imaginative territory shaped by memory, desire, displacement, and presence.Architectural fragments, dreamlike figures, and narrative details appear as if they are quietly inhabiting these spaces, inviting the viewer to enter them slowly and intuitively.Through scale, texture, and the square format, Kolpakova creates intimate visual environments in which each work functions as a self-contained world while remaining part of a wider emotional landscape.
