ARTIST STATEMENT
My practice encompasses a variety of mediums, from traditional fine art and illustration to textiles, embroidery, and traditional craft.
I draw inspiration from a variety of sources including nature, mythology, science, and my own personal experiences as a Queer person of the Ukrainian diaspora. My work often explores themes of identity, environmentalism, the value of beauty and the intersection of art and science. I am interested in the ways in which identity relates to nature, history, and culture.
Currently, my focus is on the Slavic folk art of pysanky. Through this medium, I am reconnecting with my cultural heritage while also using it as a means of self-exploration and personal growth. This allows me to explore the intersections of my Ukrainian diaspora identity with other parts of my identity and connect with my ancestors.
