At the Yelagin Palace, a world has been created where book graphics meet author dolls, and familiar fairy-tale motifs acquire volume, character, and almost a living breath. This is an exhibition about delicate handwork, imagination, and the ability of art to return adults to the feeling of childhood wonder. The project combines two directions that Olga Popugaeva and Dmitry Nepomnyashchy have been working on for many years - book illustration for fairy tales and children's books and artistic dolls. This format allows us to see how the same expressive language works both on the flat surface of a page and in a three-dimensional form. Visitors can expect works from masters characterized by meticulous detail, complex composition, and a multitude of characters, each with its own temperament. A special place is occupied by images related to the fairy-tale charm of St. Petersburg - with its twilight, water, wind, and a special quiet mystery. The doll part of the exhibition looks particularly expressive. Here, there are feathers, beads, lace, embroidery, fragile textures, and a delicate play with the movement of air. These characters seem both theatrical and very personal: they embody soft irony, dreaminess, and a slight melancholy. We share ideas on KUDAGO about where to go in St. Petersburg this weekend.
