Anna Trochim's paintings are situated in the circle of geometric abstraction, being an original interpretation of light, matter and space. The lines running across the canvas, mutually interpenetrating, of different intensity, give the impression of movement and constant whirling, which is further emphasized by the pastel and sophisticated colors of the paintings.
