"Spring Rhythms" Painting

I am an artist, designer, art historian, and educator. Candidate of Art History (2010), Associate Professor at the Department of Costume Design at the Lviv National Academy of Arts. My works have been presented at 20 solo exhibitions and over 30 group exhibitions in Ukraine and abroad. In cooperation with international partners, I have co-organized more than 110 art projects, including symposia, exhibitions, and student residencies. Since 2024, I have also been developing my own women’s fashion brand MARBELI.
My artistic practice spans various genres — landscape, portrait, and figurative compositions — and is realized both in easel and monumental forms. I work within a wide range of movements: from realism and surrealism to expressionism, as well as geometric and lyrical abstraction. Each of these directions in my work acquires a new resonance through the combination of oil, acrylic, and pastel techniques.

In my paintings, I strive not only to reflect the world but also to transform it, creating my own system of form-making. The process of creation is essential to me: it often unfolds intuitively, without preliminary sketches, in a living dialogue with the canvas and the material.

I work in small series — from 5 to 10 pieces — that are united thematically and reveal certain conceptual issues. Some of these cycles are born and evolve over several years, while others are short-lived, yet no less concentrated in their emotional and figurative expression.

My works are an attempt to reveal beauty and explore the meanings of the material and the immaterial, the corporeal and the spiritual, the transient and the eternal. Through reflection and transformation, I seek to convey to the viewer the subtle states of human existence and the world, where the inner and the outer, the personal and the universal, intersect.
