Depending on the speed of my movements and internal state, the artistic expressiveness, reception and elaboration of paintings change. I am in constant movement with nature. For me, unpredictability and situationality are important. I see the plot anywhere, meeting with it is completely accidental. And this is not a photograph, but rather an experience, rethinking, interpretation of what he saw. It is a fixation of the moment between reality and memory. This moment is always between calm and anxiety, joy and sadness, between fleeting and instantaneous states of nature, between points of movement. In a series of these works, I focused on the duality of the natural elements, in the transition from one state to another. In these landscapes, I try to capture the moment as I feel it, a moment that cannot be repeated tomorrow and will disappear in the next moment. The moment as a metaphor for a twist of fate. If the earlier works were done between figurative and abstract, with a clearly marked horizontal, then in later paintings I clear the image of thorough detailing and move away from a clear division into two parts. Here I leave only the emotional and color component of the picture. Disturbing dawn, ghostly trees, as a symbol of people who are and are not, the red color in the snow is berries like blood. Now I look at this picture very differently. For so long the fear of war has been in the air. And on February 24, it began, in the early winter morning. This painting came to me in America just from Ukraine, Kharkiv, where the war is going on. My friends risked sending this to me. Thank you for your attention to my painting! If you buy my painting or print, then my fee will go to help my country - Ukraine in this terrible war that Russia started.

Kateryna Ivonina is Ukrainian artist and she lives in the USA from the end of 2021 "In my artistic practice, I bring to life "eternal" questions, which are contextualised in current cultural circumstances and through the framework of my personal experience. I am interested in the form, figure and act of self-identification, self-consciousness of both the entire human specie and the individual thinking being. Identity is a fundamentally questionable entity, which from a correlationist, Cartesian perspective looks like an unsolvable puzzle. Therefore, as an artist, I turn to the logic of the phenomenologist and seek to discover the features of human identity in the reflection of the optics through which we look at the world of things and phenomena. The anthropomorphisation of non-human forms of life, the narrativisation of what we see, is always an experience of distortion, a sign of blind anthropocentrism. But by deconstructing this experience, we can find an answer to the question of who we are through our intentions, projections, memories and delusions. It is optics that is particularly important to me as an artist. I create my works at the level of the gaze, of perception - tangible and intangible all at once, always somewhere in between, in the midway, both corporeal and imaginary, real and illusionary, abstract and figurative. Here is the basic logic that underlies my artistic practice: nature influences the human being, their creative power and their capacity for self-consciousness. Humans in turn, being under such influence, observe and interpret nature. So the transformations and interpretations of natural forms in human creative and scientific practices are both the source and the consequence of that interaction that is embedded in our genome and that sprouts in our culture. It changes forms and contents, but remains faithful to this dual and balanced pattern of perception and influence. This structure is confusing and bewildering. But at the same time, it gives us the opportunity to examine individual facets and traits of fluid, performative identities through juxtaposition, co-configuration, correlation.I work with visual semiotics and use it as a navigation system - a complex, multilevel construction of the visible and assembled universe, as if reconstructed by humans from elements of tradition, ancestral memory, symbols, avatars and fragments of large and small narratives, from recollection and "peeking" into the future.
