Oksana Fedshychyn

I'm a painter based in Tel Aviv.
In my artistic practice, I often turn to simple, naive motifs, depicting various imagined, zoomorphic characters. My works explore the connection between humans and nature, as well as the metamorphosis of bodies. My art opens a fairytale-like world where life is continuously reimagined through imagination, creating a dialogue between the inner
and outer realms, where humans and animals live in harmony, sometimes merging with one another. This allows deeper truths about our existence to be revealed and offers the possibility for each individual to change, transform, and become someone or something else.
For my creations, I draw inspiration from folk art, mythology, and everyday life.
