Migration | The Fire Born Painting

Born in 1980 in Kazakhstan, Yuliya’s path from a classical arts education to a career in law, and finally, a full-time artist, reads like a journey of rediscovery. After moving to the UK two decades ago, she spent 15 years in the corporate world, working internationally, before trading the office for the easel and unleashing a style now celebrated for its dreamlike, ethereal quality. 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. watch the studio process, art shows and behind the scenes on instagram: her life, home, garden, daughter and occasionally a hiding hubby
