PIL - Prelude of intimate letters Print

I am a professional artist with a wide range of painting and graphic techniques. I create paintings, drawings, graphic works, and sculptures. Born in Luhansk, Ukraine, I received my first degree in art from the State Art College in my hometown. I later moved to Kyiv, where I graduated from the National Fine Arts Academy in 2005 and have been living and working in Kyiv until February 2022. After the Russian ivasion of Ukraine, I moved to Paris, France, where I reside now and work at the L'atelier des artistes en exil. I believe that an artist is a kind of a filter of contemporary time, a receiver, which consciously captures the energy of what is going on, in the state of “here and now”, in what is in here at a particular moment. An artist is simultaneously a transmitter, capable of transferring an accumulated energy in the shape of eloquent images and symbols. Being a creative personality, I express myself by glorifying beauty. I strive to express my vision referring to eternal concepts: life and its values, to nature, love, dignity, and beautiful people. I strive to depict, using my ability to create beauty out of what we have in hand, to convey the saturation of the contemporary images through the entirety of energy.
