Between Light and Darkness Painting

Karina Eibatova (b. 1988) is a visual artist whose practice spans semi-abstract oil painting, large-scale murals, and printed artworks, with her creations featured on surfaces ranging from walls and interiors to clothing and album covers. Her art is evolving around the exploration of nature, dreams, and imagination, blending colour, form, and semi-figurative abstraction to evoke feelings of wonder and introspection. Her artistic evolution began with intricate botanical drawings in watercolour and graphite, which later transitioned into semi-abstract oil paintings that explore themes of transformation, mystery, and renewal. Drawing inspiration from flora, fauna, celestial phenomena, and the seacoast of the UK, her recent works present inner landscapes that delve into the profound connections between humanity, spirituality, and nature. Her compositions balance clarity and ambiguity, creating immersive spaces that invite viewers to reflect on the interplay between life, light, and the subconscious. Eibatova’s work has been exhibited worldwide, commissioned for private residences, hotels, and public spaces globally, demonstrating her ability to resonate with diverse audiences. Based in the UK, she continues to develop her practice, seeking to foster connections both locally and internationally.
