Valeria Yakymenko

Born in Ukraine and currently based in Germany, I am a contemporary artist whose practice is rooted in abstraction, materiality, and emotional expression. My paintings explore the tension between control and freedom, combining structured compositions with spontaneous, gestural movement.

Using acrylic, oil, and mixed media, I develop richly layered surfaces that reflect the complexity of human emotion and the subtle rhythms of nature. Each work is conceived as a dialogue between energy and stillness, inviting viewers to engage on both visual and emotional levels.

Having exhibited in numerous group exhibitions and held a solo exhibition in Germany, I continue to develop a body of work that seeks to enrich contemporary spaces and foster meaningful human connection through art.
