Fireweed
This 30 m wall on a side of an elderly house Anetta painted a fireweed, a very common plant found around Europe. It’s known to be one of the pioneering plants as it often is the first one to bloom in open areas and fields after forest fires, hence its name. Fireweed felt very fitting on this tall narrow wall as it blooms gradually and leaves something to wait for.

The management and the board involved them in the making of the painting that is being created at their residence as part of the Streetart Festival, and launched a competition. Anetta Lukjanova works in the style of contemporary magical realism and often mixes images from digital painting and the internet with realistic depictions in the manner of classical oil painting.
