Aia Kit

I was born in 1995 in Dnipro. Currently I live and work in Kyiv.
I create paintings with oil and other mediums.
My artworks are a way of social expression. I explore the themes of Mental health, Feminism and Humanism through them. Currently, the main topic of research is the experience of collective trauma of Ukrainians as a result of the Russian-Ukrainian war.
I strive to raise acute social issues in my artworks that would resonate in people's minds.
