Artist Statement

I have always been curious about how visible and unseen forces shape our lives – and how we move within the boundaries set by society, family, and our own perception. Growing up in Ukraine taught me resilience and the value of desire, but also the weight of expectation. Art became my way of breaking free – a space to preserve my inner light and assert my own truth.

Painting is my way of exploring cycles, emotions, and choices. My work moves between continuity and disruption, between the rhythms of nature and the constraints we inherit. I am interested in moments when perception shifts and imagination opens new dimensions of experience – when joy, fantasy, or vulnerability become ways of seeing.

In the studio, I surrender to process. A painting begins with intuition and evolves through layers that conceal and reveal, creating a dialogue between accident and intention. Geometric forms may appear as symbols of limitation, while fluid color fields suggest cycles or fleeting emotional states. Each canvas is both personal and universal: an imprint of my inner landscape and, at the same time, a mirror of collective human experience.

The overarching concept in my work is boundlessness – our innate connection to the infinite. By giving form to what is often unseen, I invite viewers to look beyond surfaces and encounter the complexity within themselves. My hope is that the work reflects a process of self-discovery and healing, and opens a space for others to recognize their own paths and light.
