PULLING BACK THE CURTAIN
Ukrainian-British artist Natalia Millman fearlessly explores uncomfortable and very personal subjects—dementia, aging, death, grief, and guilt—in her multi-media and installation artwork. Fueled by the painful loss of her father, her work represents a courageous expose of an often-shunned disease that wreaks devastating damage on individuals and their families. Natalia’s artwork reflects her in-depth investigation of dementia’s effects on the structures of the brain responsible for language, memory, and consciousness. She also wishes to shift the tragedy narrative to one of healing and hope in this no-holds-barred investigation of a traumatic disease.
