Immersion Painting

I am an artist from Vienna,Austria I graduated from the State Academy of Design and Arts in Kharkov (Ukraine) with a degree in industrial design in 2000. Since then, I collaborated with ELLE-Ukraine magazine, making illustrations for their articles, worked for the advertising industry and had joint projects with various Ukrainian fashion designers.Currently, I actively participate in group exhibitions and various art projects. In my work I use transformation as a strategy. Fictional life blends with reality, and they invariably begin to influence each other. In this way my paintings reflect a fascinating and dynamic process of creating the transition of the present day into a new and mutable reality. Images imprinted in the altered, moving space of memory reveal their transformative nature.. Through the paths of the halted moment of change I expose the intimacy and sincerity of transformation. I work with abstract and figurative art, it helps me to create a visual representation of my conceptual needs as well as to blur the lines between the fictitious and the literal, the familiar and the abstract, the absurd and the serious, thus trying on the opposites.
