Viktoriia Kush
Artist from France
I, Viktoriia Kush, am a professional artist with over 18 years of experience in painting. Born in Ukraine in 1992, I now live and work in Paris. Art has been a part of my life since childhood, and at the age of 14, I consciously embarked on my journey in painting, studying under the guidance of artist Hanna Andriivna Tkachyk and refining my skills in various techniques.
I earned a Master’s degree in Design from Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts, which expanded my creative approach and deepened my understanding of form, composition, and color.
In my work, I merge classical and contemporary techniques, experimenting with materials, colors, and symbolism. My paintings are not just visual compositions; they are explorations of themes, energy, and the psychology of art. I work with deep emotional states, translating them into symbolic imagery, color dynamics, and textures.
Each painting tells a story, guiding the viewer through emotions, transformations, and inner quests. I study the energy of color, subconscious imagery, and the impact of art on the human psyche. My goal is for my paintings to do more than decorate a space—they should interact with people, evoke emotions, and leave a lasting impression.
I continue to learn from master artists, explore new techniques, and integrate modern technology, including artificial intelligence, into my creative practice. My works have been exhibited in galleries and are part of private collections worldwide.
For me, art is not just about visual beauty—it is a profound exploration of human nature, emotions, and the connection between reality and the subconscious.

Fire of Freedom
Painting by Viktoriia Kush
50 x 70 cm • Canvas, Oil, Oil and canvas
The final piece of my 2024 collection, Fire of Freedom was born from the depths of pain, defiance, and the unyielding spirit that every Ukrainian carries. Flames rise as a symbol of reckoning, while the ashes mark the end of an era of terror.
From the "Shadow of War" Series
At the heart of the composition stands a Ukrainian woman—an emblem of resilience, dignity, and strength. The trident on her chest signifies unbreakable sovereignty, while the wreath of red poppies atop her head serves as both a tribute to those who gave their lives for our land and a symbol of renewal.
Behind her, the consuming fire devours the remnants of an oppressive force—a metaphorical purge of darkness and the inevitable collapse of tyranny.
This painting demanded a great deal of my energy, yet I knew it had to be created. More than just a work of art, it is a testament to history—one that continues to live within the hearts of all Ukrainians.
