Born Sonia Stern in Odesa, Russia (now in Ukraine), she was adopted at age five by an uncle and brought up in Saint Petersburg.
Inspired by the forms of cubism, the colors of painters Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh, and the movement known as orphism co-founded by her husband, Sonia Delaunay developed a style after 1910 based on the juxtaposition, or “simultaneous contrast,” of bright prismatic colors.
Sonia Delaunay became a fashion designer in the 1920s, when her brilliant hand-painted fabrics revolutionized the design of textiles.

 pizo: ah: Sonia Terk-Delaunay ()
To begin with, Sonia Delaunay's art was one of the first expressions of abstract painting, and one that proved to be most fruitful.
It should not be forgotten that Sonia rallied to abstract art as early as 1912: Her illustration for La Prose du Transsiberién by friend Blaise Cendrars, is without doubt the first application of abstraction in decorative art, and her 'simultaneous contrasts' are among the earliest examples of that aesthetic.
It is time (Sonia Delaunay would have been 100 years old in 1985) to recognise in her the most permanent artist of the twentieth century.

 DWpress - Il notiziario delle donne
Le multiformi capacità di Sonia declinano pertanto una strategia del fare artistico che travalica la tradizionale distinzione tra livelli di qualità culturale, alimentando una costruzione di senso estetico onnicomprensivo, indifferente al settore operativo prescelto ma esclusivamente guidata dalla dignità del progetto intellettuale riconoscibile alla fonte del momento attuativo.
Si tratta di una concezione volta a capovolgere completamente la considerazione del lavoro sull'oggetto, che reclama così i diritti di una parità conquistata sul campo dell'atto costruttivo e non attribuita prioritariamente secondo una referenzialità gerarchica di appartenenza qualitativa (maggiore-minore), ed evidentemente tuttora vigente come categoria concettuale, già radicata nell'organizzazione medievale delle corporazioni.
Ecco perché questo pensare "l'universo maschile come realtà straniera" si trasforma in scelta preferenziale di contiguità femminile, in momento di ricerca di un'espansione emotiva in grado di rinnovare quell'antico desiderio di complicità con la madre nell'alveo dilatato di un sentire assonante.

 Orphism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He used the French term Orphisme to label the paintings of Robert Delaunay, relating them to Orpheus, the poet and symbol of the arts of song and the lyre in Greek mythology.
The term may also be used in reference to the paintings of Delaunay's wife, Sonia Terk and to the Czech painter, Frantisek Kupka along with other members of the Puteaux Group.
Founded by Jacques Villon, the orphists were rooted in cubism but moved toward a pure lyrical abstraction, seeing painting as the bringing together of a sensation of bright colors.

Sonia Terk Delaunay settled in Paris in 1905, met and married Robert Delaunay in 1910, and joined with him in the development of Orphism, a movement based in Cubism but determined to bring new lyrcism and color to the rather severe works of Picasso and Braque.
During the 1920s, she focused upon bringing this new artistic lyricism into the world of high fashion, transforming fabrics for fashion into a moveable artistic feast.
