"If you losest all, and gettest wisdom by it, thy loss is thy gain." - H.P. Blavatsky
PRIVATE:
Anastasia Frank, was born on 6th January in Semipalatinsk (Kazakhstan, former Kazakh SSR). In 2002 she moved with her family to Germany. Anastasia Frank is living and working in Berlin since 2007. She studied here at the HTW University and received her academic degree: Master of Arts with the specialization “Industrial Sales and Innovation Management.” Since 2022 she is working at Deutsche Bahn AG (german national railway company) in the department IT & Digitalization.
FINE ART:
But a great passion for painting in the artist's life opened spontaneously in 2011, caused by strong emotional experiences, severe stress due to the deepest losses. This situation enabled the artist to look at all circumstances with different eyes and dicover a completly new world, the world of spirituality and self-knowledge, a transcendal world beyond the human reality of perception.
Inspired by nature, deep visions and the philosophy of the East, she began her main journey into the world of painting and spiritual transformation. The ocean of visions that has flooded her since 2011, caused the need to capture this knowledge and transfer all the information received to the canvas in order to help those who want to or have already entered the spiritual path of self-knowledge. The philosophical works of ancient thinkers from different cultures and epochs had and still have the enormous influence on her art and on her spiritual path. The works of Theosophy and Living Ethics (Agni Yoga) have a special place in it.
Anastasia Frank is self-taught in the field of visual/fine arts. Since she didn´t have an academic education in painting, she began to study on her own one of the most difficult painting techniques - oil painting. The uniqueness of the chosen technique was developed independently on the basis of many experiments and personal experience. Her art style can be classified as Spiritual Art, Sacred Art, Symbolism, Cosmism, or Visionary Art.
Anastasia Frank is a paticipant, winner and permanent jury of many international exhibitions. Her artworks are in pivate collections in Europe, Asia and USA.
VIRTUAL REALITY ART:
Since March 2021, she is working in a new field of artistic activity: Virtual Reality Art. She creates art projects using different VR Tools.
Anastasia Frank is a live performance artist and a pioneer of Mixed Reality Art.
“I´m absolutely sure that art, beauty and love can change a person, as well as change the world for the better. Art fills space with beautiful invisible fiery images, which leads to harmony, elevation and transformation of human consciousness. Through my paintings I try to convey my world, my perception of time and space, my perception of beauty, light and eternal.” - Anastasia Frank (12.02.2021)
