Conception:
The surrounding world, through the prism of typography.

‘Object’ is an accidental font, which in this case acts as a graphic image of the environment, drawing the viewer’s attention to the uniqueness, form’s character of this or that object encourages reflection, allowing looking at the surrounding world and analyzing everything that fills it.

Work is expression of dark feelings that you can’t actually understand. They eat your mind inside during the darkest hour in your life and the horrible time for your country.

some things in our life are pretty simple, but they can explain other complex things

They see reality…

Reclaiming the once tainted beauty.

All my works made on improvisation. Just experiments with forms, colours, compositions, textures without any purpose.

Spilnosti (ukrainian word, in end — community) is about the attraction to one another; it’s about connection. It’s about the spark that exists between you. When the sun is the sun, but each connection is its own sun. It’s your language; it’s your communities. It’s when only two know what’s between them. Spilnosti have found their reflection in zine.

a play on the words nimesil (analgesic drug) and no strength (“nema syl”)

This poster shows a small flower that symbolizes Ukraine, which simply lives on its land. And one day this picture changed. This was the beginning of a massive attack that was launched by russia and continues to this day.

Warning Books is a book series about war and culture. These are translated into Ukrainian research and collections of lectures and articles written at the intersection of various fields of humanities — from literary criticism, history and philosophy to art theory, media and anthropology.

That’s what have been done to us, that’s how we live now and world should see it..

This linocut letter ornament offers a multi-layered experience of perceiving and deriving meaning from letters. They aren’t just tools of communication but also independent graphic elements. This transformation enables a dual sensation: recognizing familiar letters and uncovering new meanings within the ornament. The ornament of the unique Ukrainian letter “ґ” that is not immediately readable within the layout of this poster represents the hidden movements against language oppression.

Camouflage Kikimora – a suit for military snipers and scouts. These costumes are very often knitted by volunteers in Ukraine, and my volunteer organization also does it.
I created a postcard with the image of Kikimori. This postcard is being sold, and the money from it goes to purchase materials for its production.

Work #1:
Two girls sow and water the seeds, from which a tree grows, symbolizing the place that we can call our home during life. This can be seen if you look at the tree behind, on which the houses are located. This is especially relevant now, when millions of people have to leave their homeland and start a new life in an unfamiliar city.
Work #2:
A hand holding a sunflower is a symbol of the indomitability of the Ukrainian people, faith in freedom and the country’s prosperous future.

During the centuries-long aggression against Ukraine, Russia wanted to appropriate Ukrainian history and traditions, passing them off as its own. His vision is the classic of Ukrainian literature, Taras Shevchenko, who remained loyal to Ukraine until the end. The true image of a national cultural hero.

We were faced with the task of creating a digital studio for a furniture designer.

Matt Arquette has 20+ years of experience. The idea of the site is a visit to a craft workshop where the designer works. The typography combines modern and classic fonts, the color palette is monochrome with bright accents. Interactive elements and texture add depth. The site is like a drawing board, where the central space displays the content, and the supporting tools are on the edges.

The graphics for blankets are based on the name of the city in Cyrillic and Latin. Київ and Kyiv.

Coffee like a fragment of your every single day – this was the main idea of the client. Accordingly, I created the logo fragment), which transforms into the pattern – coffee fragments.
All the icons resemble the fragments of the day. When we wake up – we think about coffee. That’s why the icon of the coffee bean looks like the sun, which rises above the city. All the icons are associative arrays, evoked by coffee and coffee aroma.
They are connected with the moments, when we stop among the d

The poster depicts a font composition of letters that spell out the name Palianytsia and show the identity of the Ukrainian language.

here in ukraine, we have more and more frequent conversations about the demographic crisis. women are shown the need to be a mother, a protector (“beregynya”). but women are not the incubators, our “clocks are not ticking”, we are individuals who independently decide whether we need to become part of the “demographic issue” and give birth to children.

‘There is a short moment, when a huge change approaches, that you are left alone. It could be that you lost someone and grief about them, it could be that you have to move to another place. Before new things come closer to you, you stand silently and look. You see the reflection of yourself in the past and in the present, just as if you look at a lake. You contemplate. Finally, when you dare to take a step ahead, you find yourself in the unknown. In the water.’ –
