Abstract Mosaic&Mirror Eyes on a Blue Canvas Artwork

Galyna Salagor (Gali Sefer) is a self-taught Ukrainian artist working in a style close to mixed media and surrealism with elements of symbolism. Her use of rich textures and decorative elements—such as mirrors, mosaics, ceramics, glass, metal details, and textiles—makes her works unique and adds a tactile quality to them. Each piece conveys a deep philosophical or emotional message, focusing on themes of transformation, spirituality, and connection with the cosmos, encouraging the viewer to reflect on the meaning of life, their role, and personal transformation. The artist skillfully combines recognizable elements (faces, eyes) with abstract patterns, making her style distinctive and unique. Every element in her work is imbued with meaning, making each detail significant and capable of telling its own story. By incorporating mirrors into her works, the artist invites the viewer to interact, becoming part of the piece and creating an effect of mutual dialogue. The mirrors, combined with the motif of eyes, emphasize the idea of self-exploration and the exploration of the world, urging the viewer to see reality from a new perspective. In the context of her works, eyes serve as a portal connecting the physical and spiritual, the internal and external, the observer and the observed. They create an effect as if the artwork "looks" at you, establishing mutual contact. Gali Sefer's art is not only visually appealing but also philosophically profound, making her works meaningful both for aesthetic and intellectual appreciation. These pieces can serve not only as visual objects but also as tools for meditation, intuitive exploration, or dialogue with one's subconscious.
