  • Project “Cloud Storage.”

    Project “Cloud Storage.”

    Opening of the third and final location of the project “Cloud Storage.” “Cloud Storage” brings into focus a public discourse on art as a means of reflecting on the past, the asynchrony between history and collective memory, the fragility of cultural heritage, war as a factor in shaping new memory in Ukraine, and the limits of digitalizing human experience.

    The exhibition “Concetratio sensuum” at the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture.

    In this series, I work with the material as a carrier of states—exploring the boundary of the print where control meets chance. Monotype and experimental printmaking techniques allow me to capture the process itself: the disappearance of ink, layering, and traces that resemble worn memory. The black-and-white works are a study of the variability of gesture. The same movement shifts each time, revealing a different rhythm, density, and state. In the color works, a subtle inner luminosity appears, balancing this tension. Within the context of Concetratio sensuum, my works are an attempt to hold attention. I do not depict—I register: a state, an impulse, a presence that emerges through the material.

    My place of strength

    My place of strength

    This is a state of focus that does not require external validation. In the studio, everything seems to fall into the right rhythm: the movement of the hand, the breath, the weight of the tool, the resistance of the material. Everything unnecessary disappears — only the process remains. This is a place where you do not explain — you feel. Where thoughts stop being words and transform into gestures, textures, and traces. Paint is no longer just a material — it becomes a collaborator. The surface responds, sometimes resists, sometimes leads you further. In this state, there is silence, but it is full. Not empty, but alive — like a pause before the emergence of form. This is where trust is born: in yourself, in the process, in chance. At the same time, it is a place of strength, because this is where you allow yourself to be real — without control, without roles, without expectations. Only action, presence, and a moment that will never repeat itself.
