Artist

My goal in painting is to explore a specific inner landscape, find a balance in colour, my own new methods and be sincere by now. I cut all distractions in my abstract art to give our minds a break from the crazy waterfall of information, imposed images and messages that we are exposed to in our daily lives.
The difficulty lies in the extreme simplicity of the message of colour that you can feel, how the child feels the world - free of conditioning. The key to understanding non-figurative colour painting is attention to your own sensations.
The colour in my abstract series is an independent medium ideally suited to reflect our changing world. In the among of work, my studio is like a science lab, while colour affects the spiritual and the deep.

🇺🇦 Цієї суботи ми знову зустрілися в галереї, на мій artist talk про «Стосунки з образом» і на перегляд на великому екрані мого фільму «Гетеротопія», який має пряме відношення до проекту.
Я розповіла історію створення цієї дивноі серіі з 10 картин і пари грибоподібних скульптур, а потім ми мали час поговорити на тему «Гетеротопія» (за Мішелем Фуко).
Жанна теж взяла ткацький верстат і кожен міг спробувати ткати🧶
Виставка триває, ласкаво просимо щодня, крім неділі та понеділка, дивіться точну інфу на сторінці галереї ✨ Якщо ви хочете зустрітися особисто, ми організуємо ще одну подію з розмовою @zaza_kermes наступної суботи, слідкуйте за оновленнями @imaginepoint
✨💙💛🙏

This Saturday we’ve met at the gallery again to my artist talk about Relations with the image and to watch my Heterotopia movie in the big screen, that has a direct relation to the project.
I spoke about the story of creation of this weird statement of 10 paintings and a couple of mushroom sculptures, and we had some time to discuss on the topic of Heterotopia (after Michel Foucault).
Zhanna also took the loom and everyone was able to try to weave.
The show is going on, welcome every day except Sun and Mon, see the schedule at the gallery page ✨ If you want to meet personally, we will do another event with @zaza_kermes artist talk on the next Saturday, stay tuned 🖤

29.07 відбулось відкриття нашої
з Жанною Петренко виставки Стосунки з образом, до 27.08. Ця серія була для мене особливою, я її робила впродовж 2020-2021, я вважаю її пророчою: коли почалась війна, вона стала мені ще зрозумілішою. Історія про образ, який ми бачимо в інших, в собі, вона є дуже незвичною з точки зору підходу (мій фігуративний живопис, бісер, стрази, моя кераміка і до того ж, гобелени Жанни), про стосунки, що є дуже крихкими, про щось, що ми не в силах втримати, воно помирає, вислизає з рук, уходить в інші світи і простори. Але все це відбувається в межах нашої чуттєвості, в межах життя, в пограничному стані, де все можливо.
Дуже тепла зустріч з багатьма друзями і колегами, що зараз в Києві 💛💙✨ вдячна за підтримку присутністю!
В цю суботу запрошую всіх на показ і мого фільму Гетеротопія (за Мішелем Фуко), 18‘40”, що є дуже особистим наративом 2019-2020 рр, і який водночас розкриває тему «іншого місця». Після фільму можна буде ще насолодитись виставкою і взяти участь в обговоренні.
Imagine point, 6.08, 15:00-17:00, вхід з двору, цоколь.

Photos from 29.07: our joint show with Zhanna Petrenko - Relations with the image. This series was special for me, I made it during 2020-2021, I consider it prophetic, it is about the image and illusion we see in others, in ourselves, it is very unusual in terms of approach (my figurative painting, beads, rhinestones, my ceramics and Zhanna’s tapestries), about relationships that are very fragile, about something that we cannot hold, it dies, slips out of our hands, goes to other worlds and spaces. But all this happens within the limits of our sensibility, within the limits of life, in a borderline state where everything is possible.
A very warm meeting with many friends and colleagues who are now in Kyiv 💛💙✨
This Saturday, I invite everyone to the screening of my film Heterotopia (after Michel Foucault), 18'40", which is a very personal narrative of 2019-2020, and which at the same time reveals the theme of "another place". After the film, you will be able to enjoy the exhibition and take part in the discussion.
Imagine point, 08/06, 15:00-17:00.

'Relations with image' New joint show with @zaza_k

'Relations with image'
New joint show with @zaza_kermes at @imaginepoint gallery, Kyiv 🇺🇦🎉
I consider my eponymous part not quite a "series", but a statement of 10 works of various formats, to be prophetic. I started it at the end of 2019 because I felt pain and a personal crisis that I could not logically explain, and I worked with it until the end of 2021. The worst thing is a crisis of meaning. The solution was to try to look closer at these images, which I had largely weaned myself off by doing color research and abstract art for the previous 10 years. These works are a return to real life, which contains complex relationships, Eros and Thanatos, the unspeakable, and the foreboding of the irreversible. On the canvas, in addition to oil, I used collages, applications, and beads, which became an ideal tool for slowing down the time and are the ancient Ukrainian art craft technique used in vyshyvankas.
In the deadcar we are alive 🍄🖤❤️‍🩹🍄
