Yelena Lezhen

I am an American artist borne in Ukraine. Currently, I live and work in New Jersey, USA. My preferred media is oil, acrylic and ink on canvas and paper.

My works can be compared to meditation. My artistic puzzle takes place in a space of memories, imagination, and emotions I experience at a given time. My artistic philosophy concentrates on the fact that humanity and nature are not separate - we must see them as one. I focus on the body, mind, and soul – the human identity and its relationship to the Earth.

If you want to know more about me, take a look at my paintings. They will tell much more about me than any words. My soul is in them.

Yelena Lezhen graduated Kiev (Ukraine) Art Design College
