Olena Yemelianova
Artist from Ukraine
Olena Yemelianova ukrainian artist whose practice includes watercolor, acrylic, collage and photography. In her artistic research, she explores how people come to understand themselves through the expression of emotions and feelings, living through significant or everyday events in their lives. Considering the environment as a trigger for the process of self-discovery, she draws attention to the connection between life, historical and emotional processes that inspire the urban theme, as the development of a symbiotic structure, time and easy living. She exhibited both at personal exhibitions in Kharkov (Ukraine) and at group exhibitions (such as: “Invisible Gardens”, National Museum of Taras Shevchenko, Kyiv;
“Ineradicable places of Ukraine”, Directorate of Exhibitions of the National Assembly of Artists of Ukraine, Central House of the Artist, Kyiv; “United by watercolor”, Odessa Museum of Western and Eastern Art, Odessa). She is most inspired by architecture and elements of the urban landscape.Оlena's paintings offer reflections on the fact that we build our lives as architects of our destiny, and that we are constantly transforming and expanding, just like the architectural forms that surround us.

Coffee in Istanbul
Painting by Olena Yemelianova
36.5 x 54.5 cm • Watercolor and paper
Location:
Kharkiv, Ukraine
Mornings in Istanbul smell of coffee with cardamom, sea breeze and the warmth of the sun that gently envelops the city. Hot coffee in an elegant cup reflects the blue of the sky and the golden shimmer of the water. A ship slowly sails from the Bosphorus, and seagulls circle above the domes of Hagia Sophia, as if having an ancient conversation about times gone by. Hagia Sophia has seen empires rise and fall, and the Bosphorus connects not only shores, but also eras. It is not just a city, but an eternal crossroads of cultures, languages, and destinies. You savor every sip and listen to the rhythm of the city: the sound of the waves, the calls of the muezzin, distant conversations, the laughter of baklava sellers. This is a moment of absolute immersion in the atmosphere of Istanbul, a city where the past and the present dance in an endless waltz. While the coffee is still hot, you understand: travel is not just about roads and cities, it's about stories that dissolve in the air along with the aroma of coffee.
