Artists Statement
My art, whether photography or painting, aims to establish an emotional connection. I explore my feelings about topics and what they mean to me. Over the years as I mature so does my art and my vision. When I take photographs of subjects I don't only see a person, I see a way to express feeling. I interact with my subjects on a very personal level and work to pull emotions from them utilizing a variety of techniques including laughter. In my Mix Media work from any of my series, I am aiming to connect the ancient with the modern. My more recent works are a result of my inner reflections of my emotions, and history.
Artists Bio
Igor Zusev was born in Russia, February, 1979. He emigrated to the US with his family in 1989. His artistic photographic expressions started early in life with a gift of a point and shoot camera at the age of 8. A veteran of the US NAVY, Igor was his ship’s official photographer where he record military life as he lived it. Since then, Igor has continued to photograph a wide variety of subjects. In the last few years he has also transitioned into mixed media paintings. His work is represented in a number of galleries and publications.
