The artist turns to Porcelain when the evolution of the series reaches a state of catharsis.
Porcelain may seem similar to clay, but perceiving it that way is dangerously superficial.
It does not forgive the slightest carelessness — its translucency mercilessly reveals every imperfection.
Only a long, attentive dialogue between the artist and the material can give birth to true perfection.
"Creations of emptiness" 2021
At this stage, this piece concludes the artist’s series titled Fruit.
In the early works of the series, the form was built from seeds; in the later ones — from the voids left behind by the seeds that had departed the fruit.
This is perhaps one of the most technically complex pieces the artist has created. One can observe how the voids shaping the body of the fruit are partially filled with seeds.
Beyond the multi-step production process, the artist developed a custom porcelain recipe specifically for this object, along with unique drying and firing protocols.
The object took part in the “ArtCeram2-Trésors de la Céramique” in Sevres/France
in 2024 and was included in the official event catalogue.
"Pulsation" 2021
The series of the same name "Pulsation" began in 2020. This porcelain piece was created specifically for the Blanc de Chine International Ceramic Art Award in China.
It was fired in the wood-fired kiln of Ukrainian artist Oleksandr Miroshnychenko—just a few weeks before the outbreak of the war. That was the last fire to pass through the kiln: shortly afterward, it was damaged by a Russian artillery strike. The piece remains in the collection of the biennale organizers, where it continues to represent the voice of contemporary Ukrainian porcelain.
"Flowering phases" 2017
The "Flowering phases" series had already existed in various ceramic bodies. But when creating this triptych, the artist turned to porcelain for the first time — and the result was truly striking.
At the first Blanc de Chine International Ceramic Art Award in 2017, the composition received an honorary prize.
The series continues to evolve, drawing inspiration from nature. Each piece attempts to capture a fleeting moment in the life of a flower — from bud to decay — reflecting an endless variety of perfection.
Several other objects from the series
Here you can see works that continue the development of the series presented above.
Each of them captures a moment in which nature finds its embodiment through the artist’s hand.
