Kateryna Kobylianska
Kateryna Kobylianska has been communicating visual research on mind games
since 2018. She is a Ukrainian artist based in Montreal, who explores
concepts of nature, silence, synchronicity, and sincerity.
Her artworks are represented in exhibitions from South Sinai to Barcelona,
from Kyiv to Montreal. They become causes for pauses, where Kateryna
invites the audience. So far the artworks have been shown at 20
expositions. And Kobylianska is taking an active part in art residencies,
interdisciplinary projects.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Kateryna believes that non-figurative art allows viewers to build
their individual interpretations by giving free rein to their imagination.
Or simply the invitation to contemplate the gap between what we see and
how we understand, what we caught.
Using multiple layers of mixed media in her creative process, she paints
using acrylics, watercolors, pastels, and lacquer on a large canvas,
creating abstract paintings.
“My art is eternal research on borders and metaphysic light”, - says
Kateryna.
As of the last events in Ukraine, the prominent question artist is posing is how
to combine the reality of war, which is present in her head, and the reality
of peace, which surrounds her in Canada. That`s what you will observe in her
actual visual research.
