Nataliia Savina
Photographer and collage artist, born in Ukraine (Luhansk), moved to Kyiv in 2014. In her work, she explores the theme of life, using a documentary and conceptual approach and experimenting with visual images. She explores the inner world of the hero through associations, through the beauty, stability, and mobility of nature, trying to convey feelings, memories, vibrations, sounds, and silence.
COLLAGE
ARTIST STATEMENT
I am never silent, there is a constant dialogue inside me.
When I try to stop it, this conversation strives to break out. Photography and collage are my conversation with the outside world, the acceptance of the fear of communication and the permission to get closer, the opportunity to experience the peace that brings me back to myself.
