Stained glass painting, colorful vivid landscape with woman (2019) Painting by Irina Bast

Irina Bast, a contemporary artist from Kazakhstan, infuses her paintings with an original and distinctive style that reflects her soul, energy, and unique perspective on the world. For Irina, art is a multi-faceted expression of herself, and she revels in experimenting with various materials to create beauty beyond traditional paints. Her artistic journey encompasses two distinct directions: mosaic paintings and wall sculpture art. In her quest for creative expression, Irina incorporates decorative found objects, mosaic, plaster, wood, shells, crystals, gemstones, and any material that aligns with her imaginative concepts.

The central theme of Irina's art revolves around the essence of womanhood—capturing the intricacies of life, thoughts, feelings, relationships, and the connection between women and the world.

Her art, brimming with life and joy, has found a global audience, with artworks residing in private collections across the USA, Canada, Italy, England, Russia, Austria, Japan, France, Portugal, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Mexico, China, Cyprus, and other countries.
