"ROSES" Painting

Tetiana Vlasenko is a Ukrainian artist whose practice explores the relationship between nature, human vulnerability, and transformation.

Working primarily with watercolor and graphite, she uses botanical forms not simply as subjects, but as metaphors for emotional states, fragility, resilience, and the interconnectedness of living beings.

Flowers, plants, and natural forms in her work can become symbols of protection, desire, vulnerability, memory, and change. Through the tension between precise observation and poetic interpretation, Vlasenko explores the fragile boundary between the human and the natural world.

Her recent works increasingly bring botanical imagery into dialogue with the human figure, questioning how we perceive nature, our place within it, and the invisible pressures that shape our inner lives.

Vlasenko lives and works in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine. Her work has been presented in exhibitions in Ukraine, the United Kingdom, Turkey, Brazil and internationally, including exhibitions at the Taras Shevchenko National Museum in Kyiv and the Odesa Museum of Western & Eastern Art.
