Original artwork description
Zakhar Shevchuk’s Olga (2017) is a commanding 160x120 cm oil on canvas that represents one of the artist’s most deliberate and ambitious early works. Unlike many of his paintings, which evolve spontaneously, this canvas was planned well in advance and developed over two months of daily work. Shevchuk envisioned a figure in golden tones set against a silver background, creating a visual dialogue of warmth and coolness.
The standing nude is rendered with broad strokes, applied with large brushes and even with the artist’s fingers. Avoiding small detail, Shevchuk achieves balance through color, tone, and atmosphere. The figure radiates solidity and dignity, holding a cloth that adds textural variation and symbolic weight.
This work reveals Shevchuk’s dual nature as a painter: expressive and impulsive on the one hand, disciplined and reflective on the other. It stands as an important example of his ability to blend expressive brushwork with carefully controlled composition.
