THE ARTIST

Architecture,
memory and
imagination.

Raised in Moscow, Russia, Tatyana Dyakonov developed a fascination with historic architecture and the character of urban landscapes. Her paintings explore the intersection of memory, imagination, and place.

Dyakonov studied with artist Jane Filer, whose encouragement helped shape her exploration of fantasy and expressive visual storytelling.

Drawing inspiration from historic buildings, archival photographs, and imagined environments, she transforms familiar architectural forms into vibrant cityscapes.

Rather than documenting cities exactly as they appear, Dyakonov reinterprets them through color, atmosphere, and personal imagination. Her compositions invite viewers into architectural environments that feel both remembered and invented.

Her work has been exhibited in North Carolina, including presentations at Ambleside Gallery. Her paintings were featured in the gallery's Four Women Artists exhibition in 2018 and in a dedicated exhibition of new works in November 2022.

ARTISTIC VISION

Between memory and imagination, familiar architecture becomes a world of its own.

THE PRACTICE

Cities of
imagination.

Architecture forms the foundation of Dyakonov's artistic practice. Historic buildings, unusual perspectives, and familiar streets become the starting points for imaginative compositions.

Her approach to color transforms architectural subjects into expressive visual environments. Buildings are no longer simply structures, but elements of a larger imagined world.

Through the relationship between history and invention, her paintings explore the atmosphere of places that seem both recognizable and unfamiliar.
