WILDFIRE ART

I am a Ukrainian artist with a Bachelor of Audiovisual Arts and a former TV director currently based in Kyiv, Ukraine. I want to draw more people’s attention to the forest fire and arson issue and its devastating impact on nature around the world. I wish it could gain more visibility through such artworks. I started with creating high-realistic polymer clay plants, I continue to expand my portfolio with various nature-inspired mixed-media sculptures. I am always driven by nature’s creativity as my main source of inspiration to express myself by transmitting the moment, nature’s will, and beauty.

DESCRIPTIONS FOR IMAGES

“FROM THE ASHES”. (left)The work was created under the impression of devastating fires Australia faced with in late 2019 - early 2020. The losses of bio-diversity were huge. However, I strongly believe that nature is more enduring than we can suppose. It will rise from the ashes, we just must be supportive more than ever. People have to understand that nothing is more important but nature. Just remember, if we continue killing our planet, one day our planet will kill us. “FIREBUGS”. (right) There are two meanings of the word “Firebugs”: 1. Insects 2. Pyromaniacs. This work was inspired by the appalling acts of environmental terrorism and arson attacks on forests all over the world, especially in my fatherland Ukraine. : wowbloomroom
