Maria Abdullaeva (b. 1998) is an interdisciplinary artist, who works with a cross-media installation that includes photography, sculpture, painting, sound and texts. Her artistic practice is based on an exploration of the nostalgic, the everyday, the random, the changeable, the traveling. Maria is inspired by premonitions, signs, speculation, divination and tradition. The artist creates works from archival elements, field notes and sketches, informational finds, natural materials, alternative and B& W photographic processes. This is a magical incident on the railroad.
