Aysha Nagieva uses distinct memories from her childhood and adult life and utilises them as the perfect surrogate for autobiographical self-portraiture. Nagieva takes inspiration from the Nevalyashka dolls and paints them repeatedly in order to manifest her own memories and recollections of the past and sometimes present moments. By showcasing the plastic dolls in oil paint or watercolours, she creates time capsules that are external from her. The resultant works are memory beings, which hold her own expressions, yet also showcase a period in time.
