Krystyna Vershyna
Artist from Ukraine
Born in 1997 in Berdyansk, Ukraine. I graduated from the Lviv National Academy of Arts. I work with ceramics and installation, combining craft traditions with contemporary artistic expression. My practice grows out of personal experience while responding to social realities and the context of war. Through my projects, I transform stories, trauma, and memory into material forms that function both as acts of preservation and reinterpretations of the present. In my practice, I approach ceramics as a sacred material that preserves the imprints of inner excavations — artifacts of memory, moments of crisis, and personal transformations layered with the experiences of the present. Through experiments with form and space, I explore how trauma, war, and loss can be transformed into a search for new approaches to life. For me, creation is an act of self-discovery through material — not because of circumstances, but in spite of them. My works intertwine intimate experiences, corporeality, and a desire for renewal, where ceramics becomes not only an object but also a space for reflection and the rediscovery of the self.

Ceramic Object EXIT was sold at a charity auction for approximately €14,000 in support of the Ukrainian military. “On returning to practice. I have given clay a sacred meaning within the context of my life. In 2014, ceramics seemed to open a portal for me: I found myself in Lviv to study it, and because of this, I did not remain in Berdiansk, which is now occupied. In 2024, clay pulled me out of a deep personal crisis, restored my taste for life, and continues to resuscitate my psyche…”
