Yarrow- a series "Overgrow but cannot heal" Drawing

My name is Natalia (Delnara is my creative pseudonym). I'm from Ukraine. I'm a full-time artist, my passion is painting and travel. For seven years I traveled to different countries of Europe and Asia continuously, lived and painted for a long time in different cities. During this time, I have created over 2400 works in 38 travelbooks, as well as many paintings that are in private collections in Nepal, Australia, Ukraine, Russia, Turkey, and other countries. For the last year (starting from March 2020), I have been living in Turkey. I am inspired by nature and tropical themes. I have lived for several years in different countries of Southeast Asia and now tropical themes are a part of me. Bright colors, sun, picturesque plants - what I like to paint and what I think looks harmonious in the interior. Right now I’m reevaluating my artistic practices and all those experiences and impressions I got while travelling. I’m working on a new series, using the polysemy of the concept of “migration”, while trying to find new facets of the multicultural and multiethnic society. I use a dynamic worldview, rejection of a settled way of life and migration as tools to re-actualise my “mental map”, as a way to see more clearly and get rid of automatic perception. Being a nomad used as a cognitive tool in the artistic field allows space for miracles and manifestations of life itself.
