Event: “Kaleidoscope”

The 2025 “Kaleidoscope” International Art Exhibition was held in Tallinn, Estonia from October 31 to December 31, 2025 organized by AGOP. It was a group exhibition featuring many artists from around the world. The show celebrated diverse artistic voices and creative perspectives. I presented two of my artworks, “Tenderness” and “Calmness #2.” Both works explore themes of softness, balance, and emotional depth.
Biography
Hello, I am Ukrainian artist based in Turkiye. I paint landscapes in a modern contemporary style using acrylic paints. These artworks focus on calm, serene scenes where there is usually water, sky, light and memories. My purpose is to create pieces of art that bring calmness, simplicity, and an airy feel.
I have two series "Sky and Water" and "Memories in Red". In the “Sky and Water” series I explore the simple beauty of nature using soft tones to show the vastness of the sky and water. Through these elements I try to express the inner states of the soul. In my paintings the sky and water often look the same, like an inner dialogue within us. What is inside is also outside, so the water reflects the sky like a mirror, but not always...
I often paint lakes because for me a lake is a symbol of peace, a quiet place where reflection can happen.
In series “Memories in Red,” I reflect on the ongoing war in Ukraine, using painting to preserve and honor memories of peaceful, pre-war times.
