Svitlana Kovtun

My name is Svitlana Kovtun.
I am a Ukrainian painter from Lviv with a higher education in architecture and fine arts.
I have created around 200 artworks. Today, my paintings are held in private collections in Ukraine and abroad, including Lithuania, Spain, the Netherlands, the USA, and Canada.
I have successfully collaborated with designers on artistic interior concepts for hotels.
I also have experience participating in Ukrainian and international art projects.
In my paintings, I explore emotions and inner states, conveying them through imagery, color, and composition.
My art is an attempt to find peace in chaos, rebirth in loss, and love in silence.

I received my artistic education at two art schools. In 1987, I enrolled in the experimental department of the Faculty of Architecture and Drawing at O. M. Beketov National University of Urban Economy in Kharkiv, where I successfully completed the postgraduate minimum (candidate exams).
For many years, I worked in the field of architecture.
In 2024, I completed my studies at the IT Step Academy in Lviv, majoring in Interior Design.

I have participated in Ukrainian and international art projects, including the art competition “Riot of Colors” in Kyiv (2016),
a competition organized by the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands (2017),
as well as a solo exhibition “My Melodies of Lviv” at Victoria Gardens Shopping Center (Lviv, 2017).
As a designer, I have successfully collaborated with other designers on artistic interior concepts for hotels.
