Meet Tatiana Pundeva (Moldova)

- Do I remember how and when I started making dolls? - no). In the evening I fell asleep - a person as a person, relatively normal, and in the morning I woke up - hands up to the elbows in paper-paste, crazy eyes, permanent chaos in the apartment, hamsters are not fed.
⠀
When I started, I went through all the standard stages (already, oh my God, 7 years ago):
1) Look, I made 3 masterpiece dolls, I'm a genius!;
2) God, what a nightmare I got here? bezhdarnost, bezhdarnost.
3) Well, I'm not a genius, but talented and hardworking, let's move on.
⠀
Of my strengths is possession of color (and no, it is not innate, but acquired), an understanding of what composition is and how to achieve harmony without shoving everything that I want to shove into a doll (and naturally I want to shove the whole cabinet with paints, fabrics, beads and sequins). Well, here thanks to the Architectural Institute and Graphic Design (they beat him in the face with a bedside table, a broom, a teapot and taught him to dance))))))).
⠀
At the stage of JAVEZHARNOST, I began to go to exhibitions, where our beloved Nina Radzikhovskaya saw something in me, said that I was a genius (no, well, if NINA TOLD, yeah? I found the same people with cockroaches of the same subspecies as mine, which makes me madly happy).
⠀
The last year was very successful and fruitful for me, I got Pandora and in collaboration with Lena Fomicheva performed at the “Art of the Dolls” with the ESPRESSO DOPPIO project.
⠀
I love ethno very much, though…. I think I love everything. And my dolls are so different, if I were a follower of myself, I would get confused.
⠀
I live in Moldova (not to be confused with the Maldives). It's not just for you, but Chisinau is the capital of a European state))))))))))))))))))))))))))) And no, I don't eat hominy and I don't drink red wine for breakfast lunch and dinner))))))))))))))))
⠀
I am also a very introvert, although well-mannered (well, again, they beat him in the face ... well, with all the household items and taught me to greet, ask how are you and not dump into your beautiful inner world during a conversation).
⠀
What is a doll for me? Need. I just can't help but do. They interest me exclusively in the process. As soon as I finish, I forget about the made doll. If only they didn't have to be sold!) But, as a person who feeds and dresses himself, you have to crawl out of the ivory castle and make at least some effort.
What is a doll for me? In bad times - crutches, in good times - wings)
