This painting captures the scorched stillness and grounding presence of the desert after a spring khamsin (hot wind). The land breathes warmth, and the palette radiates the soft power of natural forces. Through thick palette knife textures, the sky and cliffs dissolve into the heated silence. More t...

Contact us.My name is Yuka Gubenko. I’m an artist living in Israel, in a small place in the Negev Desert.
My artistic journey began with simple curiosity — a desire to try. What started as a quiet hobby gradually became a path of deep exploration. I studied at the Visual Art Center in Tel Aviv (2018–2020) and continue to evolve through workshops and constant studio practice.
My work is a reflection of emotional and elemental states — often abstract, sometimes shaped into landscapes or subtle figures. Nature is my guide: light, wind, the stillness of the desert, the texture of earth. I use oil, soft pastels, acrylics, and often work with palette knives and modeling paste to add depth, movement, and physicality.
Painting, for me, is not about representation, but about evocation — creating a space where viewers can pause, feel, remember. It’s a form of sensing rather than telling.
Relocating to the desert brought new rhythms, silences, and light — and with it, a new chapter in my artistic research.
