Sasha Luneva
Artist from Ukraine
I was born in the city of Mykolaiv in the south of Ukraine. I studied in Kharkiv, now I live and work in Kyiv due to the war and Russian occupation.
I am engaged in painting, in the direction between primitivism, naive art and art brut. I mainly work with acrylic and oil, and almost every work includes acrylic balloons, dry pastels, and texture pastes.
My work is focused on the interaction between people and the environment. Often my works are about fear, narrow spaces and love. I like to work with different topics, passing them through my experience.

Painting by Sasha Luneva
60 x 90 cm • Canvas, Pastel, Acrylic
A man spent his whole life protecting his personal space and never got too close to his loved one — he didn’t throw himself around their neck, didn’t bite, didn’t try to be too close. He thought it was unnecessary.
But one night, a magical deer appeared in his room and said:
— If you don’t do this, reality will crack.
The man laughed.
That night, his body became incredibly slippery — he couldn’t touch anything anymore. The spoon slipped away, the doors wouldn’t open, people dissolved in the air as soon as he got close.
And that’s how he lived — forever separate, like a slice of butter that fell on the floor. And he deeply regretted it.
