Shoosty’s work differs from related art Historical Genres: Art Nouveau: Art Nouveau often focused on decorative elements in applied arts like furniture and architecture, whereas Shoosty’s work seems more focused on visual story- telling and conveying ideas. Naturalistic vs. Stylized: Art Nouveau often em- phasized a naturalistic representation of plants and flowers. While Shoosty’s work uses organic forms stylized with traditional textile patterns which deviate from strict naturalism. Surrealism: Surrealism often aimed to delve deep into the sub- conscious and explore dreams and the irrational. While Shoosty’s work has a dreamlike quality, it doesn’t nec- essarily focus on Freudian interpretations or delve into the depths of the unconscious mind. The use of insects moves the focus to world where the rules of survival are different. Surrealism often carried social and political under- tones. Shoosty’s work, while thought-provoking, seems more focused on celebrating the beauty of nature and ex- ploring the intersection of science and imagination.
Art Deco: Art Deco emphasized geometric abstraction in its designs. While Shoosty’s work incorporates patterns, they are often more organic and inspired by natural forms rather than strictly geometric. Luxury and Opulence: Art Deco was often asso- ciated with luxury and opulence. Shoosty’s work, while visually rich, doesn’t necessarily convey the same sense of grandeur or material wealth.
