“Those who know me well call me the Siberian River in the Rhine Valley.”
Irina Bach is a world explorer and aspiring artist from Germany with Russian roots. Born on May 30th, 1974 in Siberia, Russia, she has been living in Germany since 1996. Painting and drawing have always been her passions, but unfortunately, she pursued a different career path at the request of her parents, in order to earn a decent income. She completed her medical training in Russia and had her qualifications recognized in Germany, where she has been working in a leading position in social and healthcare for 27 years.

What does team spirit mean for my company? This question was the reason for the creation of this work of art. All my thoughts are reflected in the painting. Basically, it's about creating a sense of unity, trust, and common purpose among employees. Everyone should feel that their viewpoints and opinions are valued and supported.
She currently manages a senior care home, and the COVID-19 pandemic has pushed her to her mental and physical limits. However, Irina found solace in painting and rediscovered her passion for it in 2020. She is currently studying modern art at a private art academy under Elena Belikova and has become a member of the women's artist group "Kunst18."

The tree is one of the most universal symbols of the spiritual culture of mankind. It symbolized the central axis of the world, connecting Heaven and Earth; man and his path to spiritual heights; cycles of life, death and rebirth; the Universe and its processes of eternal renewal; hidden Wisdom and the mysterious laws of being. In ancient times, it was associated with the gods and the mystical forces of nature.
Irina volunteers in social projects and art therapy with children and the elderly, supporting and promoting culture and art in Germany. She is also a member of the International Artist Association ASM-Club.
“For me, painting represents my philosophy, dreams, and vision of life processes and existential questions.”
Irina completed her education at Elena Belikova Academy for Painting Karlsruhe, Germany, and Julia Altas School of Art New York, USA. The class for fine arts at the Academy of Fine Arts Karlsruhe is an art course for adults.
Spirit and Sensuality | Oil
$1,300
27 X 39
After reading "Narcissus and Goldmund" by Hermann Hesse, I was deeply impressed and tried to express my feelings in my artwork. It touches so deeply on the feelings, problems and life experiences of so many people.
My artworks show very different life plans, the struggle and the ambiguity of human nature between spirit, faith, order and sensuality, lust, instinct.
St. Irene and her story inspired me to create these paintings.
Especially the messages from the Völel and their meaning in Christianity:
1. a dove holding an olive branch in its beak, symbolizing purity and grace.
2. an eagle with a wreath representing the power of the Spirit received through worship. 3. a black crow with a snake symbolizing earthly temptations and impure intentions.

Irina prefers to paint on large canvases with oil or acrylic paint, as well as alcohol ink. The use and combination of different techniques, trends, and styles allow her to show the viewer the infinite possibilities of interpretation and perception.
“Through color and form, I challenge my reality, which requires the viewer's interpretation, observation, and sensitivity.”
“I can be different, like a river, I can be fast, stubborn, and foam with a wild current, producing a work of art in a new, unexpected technique with a theme that encourages reflection on current issues.”
Irina's works are expressive, a mixture of impressionism, surrealism, and naive art, full of explosions of bright colors, fabulous shapes, and textures with a sense of freedom that reflects the intensity of her own view of the world. She is a true creator and inventor, always looking for new art forms and techniques to express her inner self.

The painting depicts written letters folded into triangles, flying in the candlelight, slowly burning like memories in our brains. The warm glow of the candles illuminates the scene, casting a soft glow on the letters as they float through the air. The colors are muted and subdued, creating a sense of nostalgia and thoughtfulness. The painting invites the viewer to reflect on the ephemeral nature of memories and the ephemeral nature of life.
