Roksolana Dudka

I carefully study the meaning and deep roots of ornaments, signs and symbols in decorative painting. It helps me to negotiate with the world and to self-determine, to self-identify in it as a woman and as an artist. Immersed in my fictional, painted world, my art, it is possible to understand the universe and the role of human in it. At the same time, the simplicity and complexity of the forms and images that I use in my works have a deep meaning and interpretation, and their fabulous variations with recognizable images provoke reflection on personal development and the beauty of the world around us. The chosen manner of decorative image gives me the opportunity to personally interpret the world in which I live and in which I would like to live.
