Nataliia Brichuk
Ukraine
Natasha Brichuk, known as Notuko, paints in the language of memory. Raised in Rivne, Ukraine, she grew up surrounded by the vivid patterns of embroidered tablecloths, the warmth of painted ceramics, and the quiet grandeur of old Ukrainian architecture. These objects weren’t just decoration—they were stories, passed down through generations, whispering of heritage, resilience, and identity. But tradition, as she saw it, was not static. It pulsed with life, adapting, shifting, existing between past and present. It is this in-between space that Notuko inhabits as an artist. She pursued decorative and applied arts, specialising in ceramics, but painting became her true medium for storytelling. What began as a simple fascination evolved into a bold artistic language - where folk motifs meet abstraction, where Byzantine echoes intertwine with modern fluidity. Her figures emerge as symbols rather than individuals, their forms at times dissolving into textured layers of colour, as if caught between reality and memory. Improvisation is at the heart of her process. She embraces instinct, letting her brushwork capture fleeting emotions and intangible histories. Her compositions often feel like fragments of a grander, unseen whole — inviting viewers to reconnect with traditions, not as relics, but as living, breathing experiences. Notuko’s works have traveled far beyond her hometown, exhibited across Ukraine, Europe, and the UK. Yet, her essence remains rooted in the stories of home — the unspoken ties between past generations and those still to come. Her art is a conversation between centuries, a delicate balance of structure and spontaneity, of inherited symbols and contemporary expression. To experience Notuko’s work is to step into a world where tradition doesn’t belong to the past—it evolves, just like us.

David Sharashydze
Ukraine
For Davyd Sharashydze, art is not just a visual expression – it is a bridge between cultures, histories, and emotions. Born into the rich artistic heritage of Ukraine and Georgia, he carries the essence of both lands in his work, blending the strength of one with the poetry of the other. His artistic journey began in the early 1990s, a turbulent era that saw the collapse of the Soviet Union and the reawakening of national identities. As the world around him shifted, so did his approach to painting. Inspired by the old masters but driven by a desire to break form, he developed a style that exists between classical and contemporary, between precision and freedom. Moving to Kyiv in 1993, Sharashydze immersed himself in the artistic fabric of the city, becoming a key figure in its creative community. His work spans painting, gesso, and graphics, but what remains constant is his ability to capture the fleeting nature of human experience—whether through textured surfaces, layered compositions, or the interplay of light and shadow. Exhibiting since 1991, he has showcased his works across Ukraine, Finland, Norway, Georgia, Australia, the USA, and Mediterranean countries, finding collectors in some of the world’s most prestigious galleries. His membership in the UNESCO International Federation of Artists is a testament to his global artistic impact. Sharashydze’s paintings feel like fragments of dreams, echoes of forgotten myths, glimpses of a world that exists just beyond reach. Whether in the soft contours of a portrait, the weathered textures of his gesso work, or the intricate lines of his graphics, his pieces invite viewers into a space of reflection — where past and present, memory and sensation converge. To experience Davyd Sharashydze’s art is to travel through time, to feel the weight of history and the pulse of the present, all captured in a single brushstroke.

Oleksiy Belusenko
Ukraine
In the quiet, contemplative spaces of Oleksiy Belusenko’s paintings, time feels like it has softened, lingering between memory and the present. Born in Kazakhstan in 1960 and moving to Ukraine as a child, Belusenko has spent a lifetime weaving together history, landscape, and emotion — both as an artist and as a restorer of the past. For 25 years, he worked at the National Scientific Research Restoration Centre in Kyiv, (specialising in polychrome wooden sculpture and decorative carving), breathing life back into centuries-old sculptures and carvings. This intimate relationship with history shaped his artistic eye — his brushstrokes carrying the patience of a restorer, his compositions steeped in reverence for what came before. His works feel like whispers of the past, filtered through a deeply personal lens. While Belusenko’s career spans painting, sculpture, and curation, it is his landscapes that carry his most intimate dialogue with the world. Capturing the quiet poetry of Ukrainian nature, his canvases are imbued with a sense of nostalgia—soft brushwork, muted yet resonant tones, and an ever-present balance between warmth and coolness. His work does not impose itself; rather, it invites you in, allowing you to drift between reality and impression, between what is seen and what is felt. Beyond his artistic practice, Belusenko has also dedicated himself to art education, sharing his knowledge through the BritArt XX lecture series, where he dissects the nuances of 20th-century British art. As a curator and a founding member of the Blue October creative association, he continues to shape and support the contemporary art scene in Ukraine. Today, his works reside in private collections and museums across 30 countries. Yet, despite this global reach, his paintings remain rooted in something deeply personal — his connection to place, to time, and to the quiet beauty of everyday moments.

Dasha Tsapenko
Netherlands
Some artists paint. Some sculpt. But Dasha Tsapenko grows her art. I remember the first time I encountered her work, it wasn’ just visually striking, it was revolutionary. It blurred the line between creation and cultivation. Dasha doesn’ see herself as the sole author of her works; instead, she collaborates with nature itself. Her textiles, garments, and installations are not merely crafted, they are nurtured. She prepares the foundation, then steps back to allow fungi, fibres, and microorganisms to shape the outcome. What emerges is something completely unique - art that breathes, evolves, and ultimately becomes part of the world in a way that traditional works never could. Her studio is unlike any I’ seen before. It’ not just a workshop, it’ part textile lab, part microbiology station, part experimental farm. A place where science and creativity intertwine seamlessly. She works with living organisms, primarily mycelium, the vast underground network of fungi that connects trees and plants beneath forests. But here, in her hands, mycelium doesn’ just connect nature, it creates. It grows into textiles, forming intricate patterns and textures, embedding itself into the very fabric of her art. It’ a process that is at once scientific and poetic. The unpredictability of working with living materials means that no two pieces are ever the same. She carefully prepares the ground, sometimes weaving or sewing textiles in a particular way to encourage the fungi’ growth in a desired form. But the final result? That’ left to nature.

Darina Smolkina
Portugal
In a world governed by rules—both written and unspoken—Darina Smolkina’s art whispers of quiet rebellion. Born in Kyiv, Ukraine, now based in Lisbon, she crafts paintings that feel like echoes of a theatrical performance, where characters linger in a suspended moment, caught between societal expectations and personal truths. Her work is a stage, and every canvas is a scene unfolding. Darina’s journey began in a traditional family, where expectations were clear—but her fascination with the surreal led her beyond the familiar. She started art school at six, mastering techniques that shaped her unique visual language. While studying graphic design in Kyiv, Darina found her true voice in painting — a space where boundaries blurred and deeper narratives emerged. At 19, she moved to Lisbon, an experience that shaped her perspective as an outsider navigating an unfamiliar world. Her art became a reflection of identity, isolation, and the quiet weight of societal expectations. From Schönhausen Palace Museum in Berlin to New York’s 17frost Gallery, her work speaks to a universal struggle — the tension between conformity and self-expression. Whether in the dreamlike haze of New Dream World or the raw intimacy of My First Diary, Darina’s paintings invite viewers to step into a moment of self-reflection, where emotions take form and meaning unfolds. Darina doesn’t just paint figures — she paints questions. Her art asks: Who are we, beyond the expectations placed upon us? What do we reveal, and what do we conceal? Her world is one where the symbolic and the surreal merge, reflecting not just her own journey, but the collective search for meaning in a world full of invisible walls.

Anna Kostritskaya
Ukraine
Anna Kostritskaya’s work carries an undeniable urgency, each brushstroke infused with a tension between fragility and defiance. Her art does more than depict; it preserves, resists, and remembers. Born in Ukraine, her creative journey has been deeply intertwined with the turbulence of her homeland. Since the full-scale war began, her work has taken on an even more urgent role, serving as a form of documentation, capturing emotions, losses, and the resilience of her people. Her paintings often feel like open wounds, yet within them lies tenderness, a refusal to let beauty be erased by destruction. Working across multiple mediums - painting, photography, and mixed media, Kostritskaya employs different artistic languages to express the unspeakable. In her portraits, faces emerge from the canvas like whispers, layered with texture, almost as if they are fighting to remain visible. There is a quiet intimacy in her work, a recognition of individual stories otherwise lost within the vastness of war. Much of her practice is rooted in the act of bearing witness. Her work explores displacement, identity, and the intersection of personal and collective history. Her photography, in particular, captures fleeting moments, glimpses of life that feel sacred in their ordinariness, a stark contrast to the overwhelming instability surrounding them. Her creative process is instinctual, driven by emotion rather than rigid intent. She has described it as work that decides its own path, rather than one that is meticulously planned. Yet, despite the weight of her subject matter, her art is about endurance. It embodies the human spirit’s refusal to be silenced. Beneath the layers of grief, there is strength. There is the unbreakable.
