Artwork Gallery – Magazine Issue 3. Color vibe

Intro from editor: Summer is a time of bright colors, emotions, and impressions. But each person is an individual and has a personal perception! We offer you to look at the participant artists and see for yourself. In this issue, you have collected unusual areas of work where there is both lightness and sadness, a mixture of traditional materials, digital work ... but not only a white surface serves as "canvases" for our artists - these are the walls of houses, everyday clothes, a sculpture that fits on the palm. Read and find sources of inspiration or your like-minded people on the pages of this magazine. Soak up the mood of different cultures and views, put down this magazine, and create something of your own - in your own colors and medium! Interviews: ■ Katya Taylor | Port of Culture ■ Olesia Tkachenko ■ Ruta Jansone ■ Marianna Nerozna ■ Ana Jošović Represented artists: Eva Alvor, Kateryna Bortsova, Karina Danylchuk, Valentina Diena, Joseph Dulin- Didonato, Wendy Guagenti, Parastoo Haddadi, Liza Illichmann, Molood Jannesari, Baharak Jourabchi, Yulia Kapustynska, Oleksandra Kulikovska, Yuliia Lyshanets, Juyi Mao, Mina Mehdizadeh Fard, Fernanda Morales Tovar, Maryna Mural, Olena Ponomarova, Parnian Pourmovahed, Saharrococo, Mahsa Se, Shabnam Sharghi Ahvazi, Margarita Stepanova, Olena Stremouchova, Tina Striuk, Olha Trikolich, Olena Yemelianova, Yeonhye Park Front cover artist Mahsa Se @mahsase__art

Your life has been devoted to art from an early age. Has your family traditionally<br />

been involved in art?<br />

My grandmother was a self-taught amateur<br />

painter so she passed her talents and love<br />

for art onto me, I fondly remember her<br />

teaching me art basics when I was little.<br />

For example: how to draw a shadow on a ball<br />

or a cube. Years passed, and my skills were<br />

becoming better and better. From the time<br />

I was in elementary school, I had exquisite<br />

and professional artwork. So the day came<br />

when I started teaching her some skills too.<br />

Together, we enjoyed art wholeheartedly.<br />

My grandma was not the only one enjoying<br />

creative endeavors. My mother loves her<br />

decoupage projects, so there is certainly a<br />

lot of creativity going on in my family.<br />

It’s impressive that you have been exhibiting for a long time and had a solo show<br />

in 2009! What role have exhibitions played in your life?<br />

Yes, I remember asking my school director if<br />

I could make my own solo exhibition as part<br />

of “The school without violence” project and<br />

they obliged. My grandmother was there<br />

too, of course, as was the rest of my family. It<br />

was a really magical experience and It had a<br />

strong impact on me. Overnight, I became<br />

the “popular” girl, even though I never fit in<br />

with actual popular kids in my school.<br />

some pictures of wolves howling at the<br />

moon, a tribal woman warming herself near<br />

a fire pit, waterfalls, etc.<br />

I was fascinated with Native American<br />

tribes and ambient music and I always wore<br />

feathers in my hair. Doubling the reason to<br />

have fingers pointed at, but I was just trying<br />

my best to be myself, from the inside out.<br />

The exhibition made me express myself<br />

freely and make people see all the wonders<br />

that I see, even though, naturally, I’m a very<br />

private person.<br />

I was showing off both my traditional<br />

paintings and digital drawings made in<br />

“Paint”, which, at the time, was really a hard<br />

program to use for drawing. There were<br />

“<br />

These experiences later led me to explore<br />

Adobe Photoshop and other art programs<br />

that I still use to this day.<br />
