Artist Statement
 Through my art, I aim to preserve and reinterpret traditions, offering a space for dialogue about our roots, our environment, and who we are today. My work explores themes of memory, identity, and our connection to nature, often inspired by the Ukrainian landscape and its stories. I create tactile works that invite viewers to reflect on the emotions and experiences tied to the land and history. I believe nature is deeply connected to human life, serving as a mirror for our joys, struggles, and resilience.
