TAKE YOURSELF APART AND START OVER Collage

I was born and live in Kharkov (Ukraine). In my artistic research, I study how people come to understand themselves through the manifestation of emotions and feelings, experiencing the outstanding or everyday events of one's life. All,what surrounds us can be a trigger to start the process of self-discovery. At this time Irethinking my life experience, paying attention to the connection between life,historical and emotional processes, inspired by the urban theme as uniquesymbiosis of architecture, time and human life. I am sure that architecture, as one ofof the most important components of our physical and psychological environment, has powerto become a metaphor for our personal change and development. Various architectural forms,spaces and structures can become allegories of our own personality structures.They can reflect our efforts, desires and internal barriers that we overcomethe process of becoming oneself. I use architectural elements to symbolizeour steps forward, discoveries and transitions in life. My paintings offer reflectionover the fact that we build our own lives, as the architects of our destiny, and that we are constantlywe transform and expand, just like the architectural forms that surround us.
