Love and Be Young

Love and Be Young Love and Be Young: Where Ukrainian Heart Meets Swiss Precision I was born in Mariupol — a city that no longer exists as it once was. That trace is what I follow.

Sea, sand, and silence became ash, absence, and memory. Yet even what disappears leaves a trace. Now based in Zurich, I work with matter that has already lived: paper, clay, straw, soil, bark, ash. These are not materials chosen, but what remains — what endures. My vessels and wall sculptures are companions of dust and silence — fragile, yet enduring. They speak in the language of Arte Povera and wabi-sabi, where memory, time, and imperfection remain visible. Swiss-based contemporary artist working with organic sculptural forms and material memory. Visarte (CH) • IAA/UNESCO. Represented on Singulart.

It touches me to feel how my painting speaks to the person who welcomed it into their home:

“Steht man unmittelbar vor dem Gemälde und blickt zu ihm auf, fallen zunächst die dreidimensionalen Strukturen ins Auge. Aus nächster Nähe offenbaren sich die Felsformationen in ihrer feinsten Ausarbeitung. Mit zunehmender Distanz tritt die plastische Wirkung zurück, während die Farben heller erscheinen.

Der Gipfel wirkt wie von einer feinen Schneeschicht überzogen. Links, entlang des allmählich ansteigenden Hanges, erkenne ich noch die letzten Spuren einer Wolke oder eines sich auflösenden Nebels. Die schroffe Bergspitze hebt sich deutlich vom fernen, grauen und wolkenverhangenen Himmel ab.

Dieses Gemälde gefällt mir außerordentlich gut. Es zeugt eindrucksvoll vom schöpferischen Talent der Künstlerin.”

Each week is a shifting landscape, traversed by visions, gestures, and emotions that flow like subtle currents, carving out new paths that enrich our experiences. “Selection of the Week” is born from this flow: a collection of works that, together, frame the visual narrative of the past few days, composed of voices that have captured my attention for their sensitivity, presence, or visual resonance. This selection takes shape from an intimate and personal gaze, guided by the emotion and intuition that every encounter with art brings. A horizon composed of diverse voices, new and established, that together narrate the variety of languages, sensibilities, and energies that permeate the contemporary scene.
