Tetiana Pchelnykova
Українка
I am Tetiana Pchelnykova, a Ukrainian artist based in Kyiv. Since 2016, I have been working as a full-time artist and entrepreneur. In 2024, I also began volunteering, offering art classes as a form of support and therapy for women and children affected by the war in Ukraine.
My practice lies at the intersection of painting, sculpture, and ecological consciousness, focusing on the profound connection between humanity and nature. I use Hermeneutics to reinterpret Ukrainian heritage and am guided by Deep Ecology, viewing the Earth as a subject with inherent value.
Central to my work is the exploration of texture and materiality. Drawing on Bergson’s ideas, I integrate organic elements—dried herbs, seeds, and sand—into layers of paint to embody the “memory of matter” and the pure duration of natural cycles. This transforms the canvas into a tactile object that conveys a sensory experience.
My approach resonates with the work of Kiefer, Mendieta, and Beuys—artists who utilized matter to convey deep narratives.
Since 2024, I have also conducted art classes as a form of therapy for women and children affected by the war, affirming art’s role as an instrument of resilience and healing.
