Nataliia Berezniak

My art is a voice of longing for Ukraine — a reflection of memories rooted in the heart, and of beauty that finds a place even in foreign surroundings. I work with oil paints using traditional techniques to convey deep emotions, symbols, and imagery inspired by Ukrainian culture.
After the full-scale war began in 2022, I moved to Munich. Since then, every landscape, every street, every architectural detail has reminded me of home. This experience gave birth to a new series of works in which Bavarian exteriors subtly echo Ukrainian landmarks. I incorporate gold leaf to bring a sense of light, sacredness, and stillness into these paintings.
Each piece is a quiet conversation with the homeland I carry within me — always present, always alive.

I obtained a master's degree at NAU in Kyiv, Ukraine, and at the same time a computer graphics course in 2006.
