Yuliia Holub
Artist from Ukraine
Yuliia was born in 2002 in Volnovaha, eastern Ukraine. She now lives in Kyiv. She studied at the M.Boychuk State Academy of Fine Arts and Design and NAFAA.
Yuliia works in the direction of modern conceptual art, creating a synthesis between abstract and surrealist art. By her own account, she aims to purify creativity from unnecessary signs and images, so that it can become a mirror for the viewer's inner world.
Her works have a philosophical and esoteric subtext, but are based solely on the game of subjectivity.
“I was born in a city that was occupied by Russia on March 5, 2022, I experienced many tests that significantly influenced my art. My works are an attempt to explore complex emotions: loss, fighting trauma and searching for lost harmony. The surreal world is my shelter. A journey between consciousness and the subconscious. A world of passion, illusions, dreams and secrets. Wild imagination finds peace on canvas and paints, carving out the eternal conflict of light and dark”.

*(Lat. “two within one”)*
125 × 180 cm and 30 × 40 cm, canvas, acrylic, oil.
An antagonism in which consciousness changes faster than the body.
The form remains intact, yet no longer corresponds to itself.
This is not a conflict between two entities.
It is a mismatch within one.
The body remains singular and conditional. Consciousness acts as a separate process.
The rupture already exists, but has not yet fully materialized.
The subject emerges and immediately loses its support.
Duality does not lead to complete separation, but exposes the impossibility of wholeness.
