Valeriia Leonova

I am a Ukrainian artist based in Dublin, Ireland, and a Fine Art student at Technological University Dublin. My practice explores memory, time, childhood, and the connections we form with people and places, alongside a growing interest in being present and experiencing the moment.

Working primarily with acrylic and oil, I combine detailed imagery, colour, and symbolic elements to express personal experiences and ideas. I see painting as a way to explore how we experience the world, both through the memories we carry and through our awareness of the present.

Through my work, I aim to express warmth, light, and a sense of connection, inviting viewers to reflect on their own experiences and find meaning in the moments that shape their lives.
