Her main focus is on portraits. Her latest work is inspired by orthodox iconography and fashion photography. By drawing parallels between the great drama of ancient icons and contemporary representations of women in the media, she explores the tension inherent in modern ideals of femininity. With each piece of hers, Natalia represents her subjects both literally and symbolically. She captures precise facial features, but then makes surreal background and colour decisions that help create a story full of meaning and visual richness.
