EDUCATION
1996 – 2002   National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture. Department of   
Mural Painting. Academician M. Storozhenko`s workshop – Kyiv – Ukraine
1990 – 1996   Kyiv Art School named after T. Shevchenko – Kyiv -Ukraine

I graduated from State School of Arts and National Academy of Art and Architecture in Kyiv and got the Diploma of  Mural Painter. I have been working in textiles just for five years. I think I was interested in textile when I worked with my father on his performances in the theater as a costume designer a few years ago.

I seek to undermine the stereotype of textiles as a decorative and applied medium for women’s handiwork by using it as a medium for contemporary art. I create sophisticated and multilayered visuals by combining various techniques. Instead of creating complex traditional perspectival elements, I layer flat ephemeral material with slow stitching within the composition that dynamically animates the viewer’s engagement.

 My textile panels are stitched together from patches of embroidered towels and hand-stitched lacework handkerchiefs. Works contain elements of collages, brocade insets, and more.

I think work with textiles is very multifaceted, always unpredictable. The textile constantly opens up new opportunities for creativity. I try to create new series that aren’t similar to the previous ones.
