Blue mood bright hues

I’ve always believed the world isn’t fixed—it transforms when we add light and allow ourselves to become color. My journey as an artist has been one of transformation, shaped by contrasts: science and art, precision and chaos, planning and spontaneity. I studied geodesy at Lviv National University, learning to map the earth with precision. But maps don’t capture emotions or dreams, so I turned to animation, where I could bring the intangible to life. Six years as an animator taught me to see movement in stillness and to craft meaning in the smallest details. Before that, a decade of modeling took me across continents, giving me the chance to absorb diverse cultures and artistic traditions. Now, I focus on painting and mixed media, exploring what I call “violets in the head”—a reflection of seeing beauty even in life’s hardest times. It’s about finding resilience in fragility and creating light in moments of darkness. Art isn’t just about the final piece; it’s about discovery—for me and for those who interact with my work. That’s why I organize art evenings, inviting friends to create, explore, and find joy in their own hands’ work. Through my paintings, I want to challenge the ordinary, to reimagine what we think we know. Because when we let go of certainty and embrace possibility, we can begin to see not just the world, but ourselves, differently. For me, art is both a question and an answer. What’s yours?
