Valya Horbova

English:
I have been creating art since childhood, shaping my visual language long before I could explain it in words. I work as a free, intuitive artist rather than a classical master — letting emotion, symbolism, and inner vision guide my process. My works often explore identity, memory, spirituality, and the deep cultural roots of Ukraine. Each piece is created as a one-of-a-kind emotional artifact, combining fine detail, traditional elements, and modern artistic expression.

English:

I studied Design and Clothing Construction, which gave me a strong foundation in composition, form, and visual structure. Throughout my life I worked in various fields — including construction and metal turning — experiences that broadened my perspective and strengthened my appreciation for craftsmanship. Art and painting have always remained my personal passion and a space of authentic self-expression.
