Yuliia Mykhaliuk

My name is Yuliia Mykhaliuk (ukr. Михалюк Юлія). I'm an Ukrainian oil painter, an interior designer and a photo model, lived and created in Poland from 2015.
I was born on January 5, 1994 in Rivne (Ukraine). I have been painted since childhood. I graduated from "Rivne State Children's Art School" (Rivne, Ukraine), under the guidance of Ukrainian painter Anatoliy Ivanenko (ukr. Іваненко Анатолій Григорович).
Master of Fine Arts from Kyiv State Academy of Decorative Art And Design Named M. Boychuk (Kyiv, Ukraine) and Academy of Film, Art and Design (Lodz, Poland).
Member of the Association of Polish Artists and Designers (pol. Związek Polskich Artystów Plastyków).

Statement

Basically, I create in oil on canvas. I move to a compromise between classic and modern. The human body is the constant theme of my paintings wrapped in an emotional component. My works reflect the individual's adaptation on the society and the problems associated with it. They express the necessity of creating a special attitude to your personality and body for being a person in harmony with yourself and your own values, not only in following social canons. Often drawn from my own biography. Shaping the canon of the modern act, aesthetic admissibility and relaxing the prescribed moral interpretation of the beauty of the human body.

Artistic activity

I actively participate in fairs, group and individual exhibitions, social projects, cooperate with galleries, foundations and other public art institutions, as a painter, an art workshop leader and a translator, work as a teather of painting.
