I live and work in Kyiv, where I am a contemporary artist whose practice explores how time changes memory and how personal experience shapes our perception of the world. I focus on moments of change, when the familiar becomes unfamiliar and familiar images acquire new meanings. My artistic practice is deeply shaped by the experience of living through war, motherhood, and attempts to maintain a connection with myself in a changing reality.
Combining drawing with hand embroidery using red thread, I reinterpret familiar images of nature, home, and human experience, exploring how fragility, loss, hope, and the search for support intertwine within them. I currently work primarily on paper, using graphic materials and textile elements. The line, punctures, and red thread become part of a visual language in which the process of creation itself takes on particular significance. Through these materials, I explore how personal experiences transform familiar images and what remains of them after loss, rupture, and attempts to restore a connection with oneself and the surrounding world.
