Sofia Minina
about the artist
Born in 1980 in Moscow, Sofia Minina graduated from the School of Biology of the Moscow State University and earned a PhD at the University of Kassel, Germany. She currently lives in St. Petersburg.
The artist creates genre paintings of everyday scenes: summer cottage residents posing with a pig’s head, kids playing behind garages or a drunkard sleeping on a bench are depicted with a hint of irony at the incongruity of the mundane.
