Olha Imshenetska

I was born and live in Lviv. I graduated from Lviv Polytechnic with a degree in Design, where I developed my interest in visual language, composition, and working with form. In my artistic practice, I draw on the aesthetics of naïve art. I am attracted to its sincerity, simplified forms, and direct emotional expression, which allow meaningful storytelling without unnecessary complexity. I work with zoomorphic characters and botanical elements that help create clear and accessible visual narratives. My works often focus on themes of love, tenderness, support, and mutual care. Through simple, concise imagery, I aim to convey emotional states that are understandable and relatable to everyone. It is important to me that a painting is not only decorative but also communicative — telling a small story or highlighting a particular mood. I work as an artist and illustrator, developing a personal approach that combines aspects of naïve art, contemporary composition, and my own visual perspective.
