Ludmila Curilova was born (1952) in Kishinev,
Moldova.   She was raised in an atmosphere of
artistic exploration. Her father was a set
designer and scene painter for Moldova's National
Theatre of Opera and Ballet. Her mother was a
ballerina at the same theatre company and
together they instilled a love and appreciation
for the arts in all their children. As a result,
one of Ludmila's brothers is also an artist,
another is a famous Eastern European writer. In
2001 Ludmila Curilova left her country and moved
to Canada. Symbolism plays an important role in
her paintings some of these symbols are
understandable to everyone and others have a very
private meaning. I still believe in fairy
tales. One of my favorite expressions is that
every woman is a princess inside For Curilova
her art has been a journey of discovery, inspired
by the personal changes in her life

While Ludmila uses traditional media and tools,
acrylic paint, brushes and art knives, she also
experiments with small clay sculpture, hand
building and hand cutting the pieces and then
finishing them with stains and glazes. Her images
bring to life that fantasy world that lives
within her mind

Painting has always been important to me.  It
acts as the magic mirror through which I share my
perception of the world.  The unspoken statement
in my work is that inside every woman is a
princess. - Ludmila Curilova

The works of Klint, Micheal Vrubel and Vasnetsov
inspires Curilova.  Constant themes in her work
are the different paths in life and the modern
woman versus the fairy tale.  She has always had
a love for fashion and this is evident in her
stylized women.  Through fashion in her works she
shows the figures level of society and their
beliefs.  Curilovas women invite the viewer into
their world, one filled with beauty, mystery and
love
