BoldBrush Recommends: Silja Salmistu
Biography
Silja Salmistu is Estonian artist living and working in Denmark. Since 2016, she is dedicated to soft pastels, with still life as the main subject.
Graduated with honor from Tartu Art School in 1986
Earned a MFA equivalent degree in painting in Tartu University in 1994, during the transition from collapsed communist regime to modern democracy.
The contrasts can also be traced in her art - strict control with realistic detail here, free improvisation with loose abstract mark-making there; awareness of tradition combined with modern experiments; happy carefree florals side by side with thought-provoking compositions of hard issues like war, violence, abuse etc., staged as a kid`s play with toys.
Salmistu prefers to paint from life, to share the room and time with her objects. She closely observes them and interprates the visual perception on her paintings, with special focus on light.
She is a multiple award and competition winner.
Salmistu has exhibited in numerous juried, curated, group and solo shows since 1997 in Estonia, Finland, Denmark, England, France, USA, Canada, China and online.
Her art has been featured in several international and national art publications (International Artist, Pastel World, Pratique des Arts, Pastel Journal, Globe, 101 kunstnere, Pintsliga tommatud linnad, Kulda väärt kunst, Tartu kunstis: Siin me elame).
She is a member of Pastel Guild of Europe, juried Signature Member of Pastel Society of America (PSA) and Master Circle of International Association of Pastel Societies (IAPS-MC)
