Solomiia Ortynska

Solomiia works with oil and acrylic paints, adding lines with coloured pencils, a combination that showcases her love of lines and strokes. Addressing psychological strife in her work, she strives to find a "place of strength" - where one can gather energy and keep moving. For many this place is their home. As home, as she knows it has been stolen, she has shifted her focus to childhood memories that serve as a shelter for the inner child. She sees memories of childhood as a means to reduce stress and enhance emotional healing.
