Description

Basia Mindewicz, Director of the Edinburgh School of Icon Painting, explains the artistic techniques and spiritual inspiration behind one of the most venerated forms of sacred art. Originally learning the language of icons in a very traditional Russian style, on moving to Edinburgh she started exploring other languages, searching for more personal and contemporary ways of depicting reality, with a recent focus on icons that honour and celebrate the lives of animals.
