Ukrainian Art on Silk
In this collaboration, I created a series of illustrations for a scarf collection inspired by the multifaceted of Ukrainian art. There were four designs: dance, music, architecture, theatre, and poetry.
Each with its own unique style, color palette, and story. Created as symbols of living culture, these scarves became part of the contemporary art scene and were showcased at TSUM Kyiv.
“Packaging presentation: the scarves ready for their journey to new owners.”
Work in Progress
The illustrations for this collection were created by hand using acrylic paint, oil pastels, and ink.
After the traditional artworks were completed, they were digitally refined and prepared for silk printing.

Ink Sketches for the ‘Architecture’ Scarf
The process of creating sketches with ink.
Inspired by the grand works of Horodetskyi and Ukrainian Baroque, I captured the spirit of monumental buildings from across Ukraine.
Some are nearly destroyed, some are iconic landmarks — the scarf brings together different architectural styles and eras into one composition.
