I was born in Kyjiw and fled to Frankfurt with my three-year-old daughter after the collapse of the USSR. My work reflects not only my personal journey but also the broader complexities of the human experience.
With a multidisciplinary background in Communication Design (MA, University of Applied Arts, Darmstadt), Social Sciences (BA, University of Applied Arts, Erfurt), and Psychology (Campus Naturalis, Frankfurt), along with professional experience in these fields, I bring a unique perspective to human behavior, emotion, and collective systems. This foundation shapes my creative process, allowing me to translate abstract ideas into bold, thought-provoking artworks.
A particular strength of mine is my distinctive sense of color and my ability to create vibrant compositions that evoke emotion. I explore themes of irony, humor, and conflict, weaving personal stories and observations into visual narratives. My art engages with complex topics while maintaining a playful, positive tone, making it accessible to a broad audience.I see humor as more than a tool—it is a bridge for connection, fostering dialogue and reflection. Ultimately, my goal is to create art that blends depth with lightness, encouraging curiosity, connection, and community. Through my work, I aim to offer a fresh perspective and invite viewers to reflect on their shared experiences and the world around them. I am currently studying with Daniel Richter at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna.
