Noemi S. Conan is a Polish visual artist who currently lives and works in London.
Her vibrant use of female figures draw inspiration from Slavic folklore.
Conan’s practice uses folkloric female figures of ‘Rusalki’ to explore, recall
and share half-remembered icons of post-communism. Her work is influenced
by aesthetics of the USSR, and the portrayal of women in the vast murals of
the era. She plays with the duality of femininity and strength – as a backhanded
compliment given to women.
