Kseniia Bielohrudova

I'm a psychiatrist, PhD, and academic in psychiatry, working alongside my clinical practice as an artist. I developed PsychoArtTherapy — an approach that treats material and composition as clinical choices, not decoration.

Each piece uses layered texture paste, gold leaf, mirror fragments, and resin — chosen for what they do psychologically, not just how they look. Mirrors interrupt the viewer's gaze and return it to them. Texture forces the eye to slow down. Gold marks what the piece treats as significant. The composition itself follows the logic of how a mind organizes — or fails to organize — what it's holding.

I'm based in Odesa, Ukraine, where I continue both my clinical work and my studio practice.

Commissions are open for collectors and spaces (clinics, hospitality, private interiors) interested in work built on this method.
