Eugene Pokutnev
That night, I couldn’ sleep. Outside my window, the street lay in pitch-black silence, as if the world itself was holding its breath. In my mind, a scene played out like a film noir—the quiet raised a revolver, cocked it with an ironic smile, and fired a single shot into the sky. Smoke curled, lingering, twisting into shapes. Thoughts exploded in my head, each one a stream of colour racing toward an unseen finish line. They tangled, danced, and in that restless moment, these are the words Eugene said on his creative process. It was then that I understood something, Eugene Pokutnev’ paintings feel exactly like this. I first saw Eugene’ work in Berlin, without knowing his name. His paintings weren’ just compositions of colour - they were movements. They seemed to shift before my eyes, pulling me in, disorienting me in the best way. Later, I learned his secret: ‘-black’ a rare Japanese paint so dense that it absorbs nearly all light, creating an illusion of infinite depth. He orders it from a master in Japan, layering it alongside vibrant colour, bending space itself on the canvas. When you stand before his work, it’ as if you’ falling into the painting, moving between its layers, losing balance for just a second. His journey into art was as unexpected as the effect of his work. Growing up in Dnipro (coincidentally my home town), a career in art was never considered an option. He spent his days sketching intricate patterns but, like many others in his city, he needed stability. So he became a policeman. And yet, fate has its way of rewriting stories. One day, while investigating a burglary, his colleague casually showed the apartment owner some of Eugene’ sketches. The man, a businessman with an eye for art, was so captivated that he made an offer on the spot: “ the police. I’ fund you.” And just like that, Eugene left law enforcement behind.

Vês Três
VÊS.TRÊS is a collective project composed of emerging artists Ana Malta, Madalena Pequito and Maria de Brito Matias. The collaboration began in 2018, after they finished their respective degrees in Painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon. The desire to continue close work as colleagues encouraged the creation of joint works where pictorial harmony creates a game of seeing and recognizing. The question that remains will always be: "Do you see three"? Three forms of expression, three styles, three color palettes. ​ It emerged as a movement of mutual support, a dialogue of experiences and a space for sharing social issues as women artists. The collective aims to convey to the viewer the importance of bringing together practices and minds for the development of human life. We are social beings and by coming together we sharpen our senses - in this case 3 times more sensitive - creating this element - Vês.Três - which, as a singular artist, has the presence of three independent artists who want to leave their mark through a colorful language that is accessible to anyone. All three intervene in the same way and at the same time in all created works.

Darina Smolkina
In a world governed by rules—both written and unspoken—Darina Smolkina’s art whispers of quiet rebellion. Born in Kyiv, Ukraine, now based in Lisbon, she crafts paintings that feel like echoes of a theatrical performance, where characters linger in a suspended moment, caught between societal expectations and personal truths. Her work is a stage, and every canvas is a scene unfolding. Darina’s journey began in a traditional family, where expectations were clear—but her fascination with the surreal led her beyond the familiar. She started art school at six, mastering techniques that shaped her unique visual language. While studying graphic design in Kyiv, Darina found her true voice in painting — a space where boundaries blurred and deeper narratives emerged. At 19, she moved to Lisbon, an experience that shaped her perspective as an outsider navigating an unfamiliar world. Her art became a reflection of identity, isolation, and the quiet weight of societal expectations. From Schönhausen Palace Museum in Berlin to New York’s 17frost Gallery, her work speaks to a universal struggle — the tension between conformity and self-expression. Whether in the dreamlike haze of New Dream World or the raw intimacy of My First Diary, Darina’s paintings invite viewers to step into a moment of self-reflection, where emotions take form and meaning unfolds. Darina doesn’t just paint figures — she paints questions. Her art asks: Who are we, beyond the expectations placed upon us? What do we reveal, and what do we conceal? Her world is one where the symbolic and the surreal merge, reflecting not just her own journey, but the collective search for meaning in a world full of invisible walls.

David Sharashydze
For Davyd Sharashydze, art is not just a visual expression— it is a bridge between cultures, histories, and emotions. Born into the rich artistic heritage of Ukraine and Georgia, he carries the essence of both lands in his work, blending the strength of one with the poetry of the other. His artistic journey began in the early 1990s, a turbulent era that saw the collapse of the Soviet Union and the reawakening of national identities. As the world around him shifted, so did his approach to painting. Inspired by the old masters but driven by a desire to break form, he developed a style that exists between classical and contemporary, between precision and freedom. Moving to Kyiv in 1993, Sharashydze immersed himself in the artistic fabric of the city, becoming a key figure in its creative community. His work spans painting, gesso, and graphics, but what remains constant is his ability to capture the fleeting nature of human experience—whether through textured surfaces, layered compositions, or the interplay of light and shadow. Exhibiting since 1991, he has showcased his works across Ukraine, Finland, Norway, Georgia, Australia, the USA, and Mediterranean countries, finding collectors in some of the world’s most prestigious galleries. His membership in the UNESCO International Federation of Artists is a testament to his global artistic impact. Sharashydze’s paintings feel like fragments of dreams, echoes of forgotten myths, glimpses of a world that exists just beyond reach. Whether in the soft contours of a portrait, the weathered textures of his gesso work, or the intricate lines of his graphics, his pieces invite viewers into a space of reflection — where past and present, memory and sensation converge. To experience Davyd Sharashydze’s art is to travel through time, to feel the weight of history and the pulse of the present, all captured in a single brushstroke.
