About The Artwork

This painting was inspired by “The Kiss” by Gustav Klimt. The sky is clear and blue, young girl is standing barefoot on the first spring grass. She is kissing the soldier in goodbye. He is shielding her peaceful world with his own body, protecting his loved one and his homeland from horrible, ugly war. The girls dress and skin are light and airy, almost blending with the nature of the background. I wanted to show how fragile and gentle this world is in contrast to brutal, loud and cruel war. On the left side you can also see the Ukrainian traditional ornament called “The tree of life”. The tree of life does not cease to bloom, so the crown is always decorated with lush flowers. Some of them have already faded, some have just blossomed, others are waiting for their time in the buds. Each of the flowers is a variety of stages of human life. Ripe fruits symbolize the results of human actions and deeds, and the buds - the future generation. The top of the Tree is usually decorated with a flower - "Fire of Life". Next to it are two bright guardian spirits in the form of birds, sometimes "birds of paradise" can be depicted at the bottom of the trunk. They symbolize the soul of the universe. Traditionally, a tree is depicted as growing in a vase, a bowl, coming out of it, so its roots are strengthened and grow from the bosom of the universe, which the bowl symbolizes. The roots of the Tree are as immortal as life itself.

Ukrainian artist living in Vienna inst: @hellosonya.art ___ In my practice, it is important for me to explore life through humor, irony and metaphor. My creative searches can be conventionally divided into two groups: the first one is focused on mystical, mythological themes, the path of self-exploring through psychology, esoteric laws of the universe and connection with nature. The second one is dedicated to highlighting prosaic little moments in everyday life. In such a polar topics, I see a balance between a person's spiritual search for his destiny and a grounding connection with physical reality, which is the necessary base of this development. I want my works to evoke warm, happy feelings, but with a hint of a mystery that the viewer has to solve or to think about. It is important for me to talk about the deep connection between human and nature, so in my works you can see a lot of animals in typically human situations and, on the contrary, people in the natural environment as its integral parts.
