Oil on canvas.

The second artwork from the mini-cycle where I reminisce about key locations of my homeland - Ukraine, filtered through the prism of my subconscious. I let go of pain by reflecting on the metaphysical aspect
Salt crystals from the soil of a front-line city Soledar containing souls dive to the darkest depths of the Black Sea, back to the womb of the origin of life.
Light reactive painting based on color theory, with encrypted features in a composition.
My name is Sasha Q (real name Oleksandra Stepanenko) and I'm an artist born in Kyiv, Ukraine. Graduate of Mykhailo Boichuk Kyiv State Academy of decorative-applied Arts and Design.
I was forced to flee my home, where I left my studio and body of work, due to the russian invasion in February of 2022, and currently live and work in Toronto, Canada.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
My art is an extension of my consciousness, an endless source of exploration of its mysterious nature, and a place of travel. The ability to embody the product of one's consciousness in the form of art is the highest form of existence. I always believed that meaningful art conveys images that only one's soul can decipher. If its core is unfakable then it has infinite power to change reality.
As a person, born at the intersection of epochs, I’m witnessing 2 historical rifts of eras simultaneously - one in my own country where society reconsiders itself from the basics, and the intersection of the analog era and times of deepening digitalization worldwide. Empirically, I’m reflecting on the metamorphoses in the world and my works are imbued with a light nostalgic vibe.
My art practice serves as psychoanalytic meditation where I'm reflecting on fundamental things and exploring boundaries of transcendental - knowledge that goes beyond sensory experience, beyond the bounds of space and time.
