RE:CONNECTION Group portfolio
The RE:CONNECTION project is aimed at reviving the culture of our ancestors and communicating with the peoples of the world using the unique language of painting. We aim to restore bridges with the Slavic nations in Europe, contact with which was lost during the Soviet Union. And the first step is the revival of the Ukrainian language and ornamental motifs as the cultural code of our nation. RE:CONNECTION is the rebirth of our heritage, its reinterpretation in today's circumstances, and acknowledging the value of who we are. Our group of artists is an example of unity and solidarity. We were all born in different parts of Ukraine (Kyiv, Crimea, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv), and now we have united under a common aegis and idea. The RE:CONNECTION project is aimed at both Ukrainians and citizens of other countries. We want to convey to the whole world that no one should forget their roots, their language, or their culture. After all, when culture disappears, the nation vanishes too. The RE:CONNECTION project is aimed at Ukrainians and citizens of other countries.

GENERATIONS
As part of the project, I worked on the topic of heritage. In my work, I used
images familiar to every person in the world - these are family connections.
This is not just the transfer of the genetic code of knowledge. It is exchanging
information and learning about the culture of your environment, family, and
people. This is something that is common to all people regardless of race or
creed. Generations are connected, have the same knowledge base and
exchange experience and create new connections with their environment.
I used ornaments as symbolism.
In my work with my grandmother, I used the Viburnum ornament - it is a
symbol of the family. For me, this is the wisdom of generations accumulated
over the years.
I'm mixed media artist, from Kyiv. During the war, I stayed at
home and continued to work. I became a volunteer in the
Uartist art community. And recently launched the "Artwork
gallery" project, with which I plan to promote the art of
Ukrainian artists and artists from all over the world by creating
exhibitions, publishing a magazine and creating new projects!
In work with the father, the Oak ornament is used. Oak is a symbol of male
energy, strong vitality, and invincibility. For me, my father is a mentor and
someone who teaches me to choose my own path and to be confident and true
to myself.
In my work with my mother, I took the symbol of the Amulet. She is Mother
Nature, who personifies the essence of creating and protecting the world and
the harmony of life. This is the continuity of the family. Each of its new
branches is the birth of a new family. A mother for a child is like a compass and
a force that adjusts, opens wings, and shows us the direction.
