S t o r y: 

The subject of the Connected series is the issue of social displacement in a fast paced urban environment. 

The competing positive and the negative impacts on an individual living in a modern city. 
 
Being raised in a small(ish) town, the artist reflects on changes she had experienced moving into the mega cities as a young adult. Most of us undergo a social adjustment joining the race (for money, fame, lifestyle, fashion, career or simply breath the city buzz) ultimately falling into faster pace of life. 

The price to pay is parting with one's identity (hence blanc paper plane) in order to fit in, feel accepted by the system and follow (or reverse - some paper planes go against the main flow) the crowd. 

Depending on their vice, we form smaller flocks growing ties and amassing new followers. 

Hence the series name -  "connected " which is also referencing the notion of digital over compensation for our solitude within the crowd.  

On the positive side, the artist draws parallels between the paper plane as manmade creation, perfectly shaped to fly with little support, and modern young person. Admiring courage, determination despite at times obvious immaturity and lack of responsibility often criticised as purposeless existence much like the existence of a paper plane.

Born in 1980 in Kazakhstan, Yuliya received classical artist schooling, but chosen to pursue career in law prior to returning to art full time at the age of 35. Her distinct touch - an elegant, almost effortless flow-- soon captivated art curators and collectors alike, landing her work in some of London’s well connected galleries and collaborations with designers, luxury institutions, and hospitality projects. Yuliya’s art has appeared on major film sets, including Doctor Strange (2016), Scandal (2017), and will soon feature in a BBC drama (2025). Her work graced exclusive London clubs and high end dining venues, international luxury hotels (like The Breakers and Aviara Hyatt), private collections worldwide, and most recently, a striking display at Huntsman (11 Saville Raw), London for Mayfair Art week in Jul 2024. In her skyscapes, Yuliya captures a luminous tension between fragility and strength; in her dreamy sailboat series, a sense of isolation and wonder. Her Connected works on paper explore urban rhythm, while her Blossom series meditates on nature’s cyclical grace. Each piece invites viewers into a world between worlds, a weightless realm where nostalgia drifts and emotions resonate softly, like memories you can almost touch.
