This unique artwork is created on a vintage Finnish postal envelope, featuring a surreal shell-like form. It symbolizes the period of my life when I was a refugee in Finland and serves as a metaphor for the beginning of profound inner transformations. This piece not only marks a part of my creative journey but also represents an important stage of personal growth, reflecting the search for new horizons and spiritual rebirth in a new country. The envelope, as the material for this artwork, adds a special significance: a connection to a new culture while preserving my own identity.
Yulia, a 22-year-old Ukrainian artist, works in surrealism. Born in a currently occupied territory, she was forced to endure many trials, which had a profound impact on her art. In her artworks, Yulia explores complex emotions connected with struggle, losses, and the search for inner balance. Her works are an attempt to find beauty amidst chaos and inspire others to seek their own path.
