Yulia Brodskaya is a visionary artist who expresses her artistry through paper quilled portraits. She combines a number of colourful paper strips by layering, rolling, and bonding them to create wonderful 3D portraits. These reformed paper strips all together make surreal patterns and shapes that give hints about the future of humanity. Her recent art series “People of Gaia” explores how humans will look in the future.

Brodskaya has found inspiration for her portraits in nature and people. She is interested in learning about different cultures, their values and how those cultural values define people. This visionary artist has included those cultural values in the faces of these future humans by carefully glueing a number of paper layers on top of each other. That’s how these paper quilled portraits become more than just faces, but narratives. Those faces narrate the evolution of humanity through past challenges. How humans face those challenges, learn from them, and find peace through respecting nature’s laws.

Among the objects we see in Brodskaya’s portraits, the motifs represent natural objects like animals, leaves, flowers, the moon, and the sun, which define the overall vision of her art. Those motifs represent Brodskaya’s ideology of harmony between humans and nature. According to her, future humanity will be more connected with nature because it ensures our existence on this earth. Moreover, the other details like, colour and design patterns, amplify the values of unity and peace.

Brodskaya’s paper quilled portraits are real-world illustrations of how powerful the visionary of an artist would be. Furthermore, these portraits exaggerate the value of unity for the survival of both humankind and nature.
