Terra Incognito Print

I am an artist from Kyiv, Ukraine. I am located in France now because of war and the genocide that russia started against Ukraine. In my artworks I focus on texture, color and composition. Most based on traditional media and techniques, such as canvas, paper, painted with oil, acrylic and mixed media. Despite the fact that I give names to my paintings, everyone sees something unique there. I try to send the viewer on a journey of discovery across the painting surface and sensitive him to his own feelings he finds while looking at color, structures, cracks and textures. I was born in Kyiv, Ukraine in 1990. Throughout my life, I have always been fascinated by art in its various manifestations. I made my first steps in art life by studying architecture in Kiev National University of Civil Engineering and Architecture in 2006. I got my master's Degree in Architecture in 2011. During my last study years I started experimenting in photography and painting. I began to devote more and more time to oil painting and defined it as my favorite painting method. Nowadays I am a painter and photographer. I create colorful abstract paintings using oil and acrylic on canvas. And for my paintings I use different instruments not only brushes but wide headed brushes, palette knife, squeegee, and my own hands. My artworks are part of private collections in Ukraine, Austria and the United States. I currently live and work in France.
