About this artwork
A woman seen from behind, caught between revealing and concealing herself.
It is unclear whether she is putting on the pale blue coat or taking it off. The ambiguity is intentional: the coat becomes almost more present than the figure beneath it, flowing around her body like a veil or a temporary state.
The figure feels quiet and contained, moving away from the viewer. The work explores the space between exposure and protection, between being seen… and allowing oneself to disappear.
I chose watercolor for its fluid and unpredictable nature. Here, it gives the coat an airy, weightless quality, while the restrained figure creates a contrast between what is visible and what remains hidden.
As part of my exploration of letting go, (Un)veiling is about allowing a moment to remain unresolved — not knowing whether something is being revealed or gently put away.

Alexandra Orinichev
Netherlands
Alexandra Orinichev, a self-taught painter based in the Netherlands, works primarily with watercolor on canvas, harnessing the medium’s transparency and unpredictability. Her contemporary, expressive style combines intuitive, experimental watercolor with pastel and pencil, balancing fluid, organic shapes and textures with defined lines and contrasts. Through her evocative depictions of the female figure and themes of transformation, her art conveys an emotional interplay of vulnerability and strength, inviting viewers to embrace uncertainty, openness, and the permission to simply be.
