Viktoriia Volodymyrska is a Ukrainian artist born in 1985 in Kadiivka, Luhansk region (which has been Russian-occupied territory since 2014). She currently lives and works in Kyiv. Victoria paints in mixed media, using oil, acrylic, and charcoal. She actively participates in group exhibitions and festivals. She has two higher education degrees but chose the artistic path at the call of her soul, studying art at the SKVOT School of Creative Industries. In her works, Victoria explores and reflects human states that cannot be seen even when looking into their eyes. Her deliberately broken, distorted, exaggerated, frozen images convey on canvas what a person consciously or unconsciously hides before the eyes of society and its high demands. Her series of paintings, 'Fear Code. Premonition', presented at an exhibition in Bucha a year after the town's liberation, profoundly impacted the audience. The townspeople shared how they recognized their emotions and experiences in her works, a testament to the power of Viktoriia's art. Currently, Viktoriia is immersed in a new series for her upcoming solo project. This new body of work is a captivating continuation of her exploration of human emotions and states
