Growing Wings — a solo exhibition by Jenny Andreeva — explores the transformations people experience at life’s turning points. The series reflects on themes of losing control and the search for a safe space for recovery. At its center is the recurring motif of the nest, a symbol of home, tranquility, and growth.

Watercolor, Jenny’s chosen medium, offers the gentlest sensory experience: free from the weight of oils and the scraping tension of pastels or pencils. Its softness stands in contrast to the noise and instability of the world around us. Many people, including the artist herself, live in a state of sensory and emotional overload, navigating constant change — wars, natural disasters, political upheavals, and economic crises. Life no longer follows a clear or predictable rhythm. In the face of global forces, we often feel small, stripped of control, and unsure of our own strength.

Through Growing Wings, Jenny captures fleeting moments of rest and balance. Her paintings create spaces of pause — fragile yet essential — where inner resources, courage, and resilience can quietly grow. This body of work reflects not only the longing for safety but also the possibility of transformation: finding ways to move through change while staying true to oneself.
