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.

JUSTICЕ AND VALOUR
In the picture "Valour", I depicted a Cossack - a strong, mighty, noble warrior
commander. Such were the Zaporizhia Cossacks.
The main character is depicted in an embroidered jacket and a typical
Zaporizhian cape. The Cossack's calm and, at the same time, piercing gaze is
directed at the viewer. He is telling us that the Cossack generation isn't dead!
The image of "Justice" echoes the idea of a young Ukraine. The girl's figure
emerges from the darkness and emits a light that illuminates everything
around and restores hope for justice in people's hearts.
With her left hand, Themis holds scales with which she weighs the deeds of
those who appear before her judgment. She leans on the sword with her right
hand but does not threaten it.
Oil artist was born in Kharkiv, based in Kharkiv.
My main creative idea is to paint fantasy characters in oil.
Among my characters are little mermaids, elves, the
Goddesses of the Seasons and Elements. Such paintings are
colorful and I love them. Also I like traditional plein air paintings:
landscapes, seascapes, still lifes, portraits etc.
A symbol is drawn on the sword, which is often used in Ukraine, Slovenia, and
other Slavic nations. It means that we are a single European family. The symbol
is called "Full rose" or eight-pointed star, and it is often depicted on icons of
the Virgin Mary.
