“Interconnected” by Artist Xenia Gray

A selection of work from artist Xenia Gray. Gray grew up in Siberia in the aftermath of the Soviet Union’s collapse and moved to the United States in 2010. Exploring the unseen forces that connect us to one another—as well as to that which is greater than ourselves—Gray’s art is an attempt to bridge the gap between the personal and the infinite, between isolation and unity:

“My work exists in the space between solitude and interconnectedness, shaped by both my upbringing in post-Soviet Siberia and my ongoing artistic journey. Growing up in an environment marked by vast emptiness and unspoken emotions, I became attuned to silence—both around me and within. This sensibility translates into my paintings, where empty space and ambiguity invite contemplation.”
