Helena Solomanka

Hi. In my artistic identity, I call myself Solomanka. I love the way it sounds.

My work focuses on the "Mono-Macro" concept. I explore the beauty of a single subject through a macro lens, capturing intricate details that often go unnoticed. Working with oil on canvas, I aim to create a deep emotional connection between the viewer and the subject, highlighting its unique character and vibrant energy. As a self-taught artist, I follow my intuition to bring out the soul of nature in every brushstroke.

In my work, I explore two opposite poles of perception. My hyperrealistic pieces are a tribute to mindfulness, where every millimeter of the canvas is filled with life and texture. At the same time, I turn to minimalism to explore how a minimal amount of detail can evoke a maximum emotional response.

For me, as a young artist, this search is a way to understand the essence of things. I believe that the truth lies somewhere in the middle: between photographic precision and refined simplicity.

I believe that true mastery is born through practice. As a self-taught artist, I master complex techniques independently, honing my skills with every piece I create. For me, education is a continuous process of self-improvement and a constant search for my own unique artistic language.
