«Noise»
This work uses two canvases with different images.
The lower canvas is the inner world of a person.
The top canvas is noise – information from the outside, television, radio, the Internet, social networks, the thoughts and values of other people, the values that the marketing strategies of various companies instill in us. It all envelops us from all sides, merging with the noise and creating obstacles on the path to self-knowledge.
Kyiv Night
In winter 2022 in the darkest times for Ukraine, we preserved the holiday and presented the “Kyiv night” project, inspired by the beauty of our beloved city.
Kyiv constantly demonstrates endurance, indomitable spirit and fantastic views of the night city to its residents. The windows of the department store are decorated with a series of author’s illustrations of landmarks and recognizable modern buildings of the capital under the moonlight.
Demon self portrait
it was the first art I created after the war started. I was as angry and frustrated as a demon. But the demon inside was filled with his national identity, Ukrainian fairy tales and traditional memories
Forbes Ukraine. Collaboration with Anish Kapoor
On the cover of the second War issue of Forbes Ukraine, you can see that world-renowned sculptor, Sir Anish Kapoor re-conceptualized one of his early works (Part of The Red, 1981) that had brought him international acclaim. The main message behind this work – you cannot know what something is purely by looking at it, as it may turn out to be different or bigger than you had expected. This re-envisioning is urgently symbolic for Ukraine that has been resisting the greater adversary.
Forbes Ukraine. War issue cover
This War issuee cover was made during the hottest phase of Russia’s war against Ukraine. Shield. Camouflage. A single pattern. Guard of the free world. These are the keywords with which we dedicated this cover. The camouflage is formed by many people who contribute to the common meaning with their daily actions. Parts of themselves are invested into the unity — all pieces in their place, in action for the expected victory. Each one has its unique place — every pixel of the camouflage matters
The Ghost of Kyiv
In response to the ongoing Ukrainian conflict, a designer’s guilt over being a bystander led to a creative project. Initially a poster design, it evolved into a university publication.
The “Ghost of Kyiv” refers to a mysterious and heroic Ukrainian fighter pilot who achieved flying ace status during a conflict, marking the first such event since World War II, over 75 years ago. This pilot’s feats and identity remained shrouded in secrecy, adding to the legend of the “Ghost of Kyiv”
We Believe
On 24/02/2022 russia started a full-scale war against Ukraine. The aggressor destroyed our cities. Many cultural and historical buildings were damaged. There’s an Easter tradition in Ukraine to paint Easter eggs with ornaments: “pysankas”. Each region has its own sacral ornament and symbols. The idea was to create 25 unique pysankas that would represent each Ukrainian region’s city and transform them into pieces of NFTs. Each pattern traditionally symbolises protection and future reconstruction
Ostap and Marichka
Collages were made for the jewellery brand as a marriage proposal concept. They include ethnic elements from poetry and culture: “brown eyes, black eyebrows” a straw hat, and an ear of wheat. And of course, jewellery elements: a ring for Ostap and an earring for Marichka.
Tiger Trappers
The image is dedicated to the book of the Ukrainian writer Ivan Bagryany. His Tiger Trappers is an adventure novel with autobiographical elements from Ivan Bagriany’s life and tells about freedom and equity
Brain Fountain
I’ve created this poster during my experiments with graphic in photoshop. Poster show the “Fountain” of our thoughts and tells that we need to let it spring but not to stop it.
Anxiety
Anxiety lives in each of us. We feel the tension that presses from the outside and we feel our helplessness. We all need a safe place to calm our anxiety.
Language
Love is worth everything
UKRAINIAN ART SEASON TSUM KYIV
The collection of folk art of the Ivan Honchar Museum became the main inspiration for TSUM’s windows. The department store’s windows display folk architecture, Kosiv ceramics, rituals, pottery, towels, jewelry, and traditional life. The department store team immersed itself in the archives and traditions, and eventually collected unique folk art objects from different regions of Ukraine. Certain characteristic elements and details were recreated by hand by modern artists.
On the city road
The illustrations convey a mix of images absorbed within. In fact, it is a mix of what I see on the road and what I emotionally imagine, feel, draw in my mind with the moods and ideas that I hear in the songs while listening on the way. The monochrome colors of green and yellow make the works emotional.
Carpathians High Sketch
The illustration is based on my sketches created during a hike in the Ukrainian mountains. During a hike, I drew the landscapes I saw and the peaks I conquered. After returning from the trip, I made the sketches into a digital illustration. The illustration shows the completed part of the mountain route from the top of Turkul (1933 meters) to the rocks called Spitsy (1863 meters).
The illustration is drawn in blue because I had a paint marker exactly that color.
The third file is combination.

Spring flowers
This window display design dedicated to the unbreakable Ukrainians, who are so different and so united in their main goal. Flowers as perfect creations of nature with the ability to revive have always been symbolic in Ukrainian culture. In ancient times, they had a ritual significance , which is reflected in applied art: embroidery, pottery, painting, and jewelry. Flowers, like people, are unique and vulnerable, beautiful alone and no less magnificent in lush bouquets.
