Oksana Shashko

I am a self-taught Ukrainian artist currently living in Poland. My practice combines textured acrylic painting with contemporary interpretations of Ukrainian cultural symbols, nature, and organic forms.
​Inspired by Ukrainian heritage, I explore themes of transformation, identity, and the harmony between tradition and modern visual language. In my works, elements like traditional symbols (such as the Ukrainian motanka), expressive fish, and vibrant flowers merge to create an imaginative, dreamlike space.
​Through heavily textured layers and fluid forms, I seek to preserve cultural memory while offering viewers a sense of peace, strength, and quiet connection.
