A personal exhibition of works by Lyudmila Nabirkina has opened in the capital's Exhibition Centre. This is the second exhibition of the artist. She exhibited her works for the first time at the age of 34, and many art lovers still remember the unusual work of Nabirkina. Today, after another 34 years, she again exhibited her works, and this time the audience came to get acquainted not only with Nabirkina's painting, but also with herself.

Each painting by Nabirkina is a mystery that is not easy to solve.

Among the exhibited paintings, the painting «Requiem for Ashgabat 1948» stands out for its drama. A torn black wing covered the sleeping city with a deadly tragedy. Black lines are visible from under the wing - these are someone's destinies, plans, lives crossed out. But somewhere in the corner of the picture, by some miracle, a nest with eggs remained intact, which means that life will return to these parts.

Something mystical is contained in the film «Mise-en-scene and the presence of Gogol», which tells about the theatrical production of «Viya».

Nabirkina's early works are interesting - «Family Photo», consisting of three separate photographs, as well as «Portrait of Guljennet and the water cycle in nature».

Perhaps, the picture «Charlie Chaplin» made an indelible impression on every viewer. The great silent film actor appeared with mirror eyes, and therefore every visitor, looking into Charlie's eyes, saw himself in them. The little man with a big noble heart was an excellent mockingbird. How not to get caught in the net of his humour.

- When I work on a painting, I ask myself the question, how would Salvador Dali express what I want to say, - Lyudmila comments on her work. - Therefore, I use elements of surrealism, it seems to me that this makes my work more meaningful.
