About Amaliia Komyz
The artist was born in 2003 in the town of Horodyshche, Cherkasy region. She studied drawing at the S. S. Hulak-Artemovsky Children's School of Arts and later earned her degree from the Mykhailo Boychuk Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design, specializing in monumental and sacred art.
For about a year, Amaliia worked in the field of cultural heritage preservation. The period of her life spent in museums, along with her interaction with colleagues from this and related fields, had a significant influence on Amaliia Komyz's artistic practice, worldview, and attitude toward objects.
Having an academic education, the artist has mastered a wide range of visual art techniques: painting, drawing, hot enamel technique, collage, weaving, and others. Amaliia Komyz's works have been exhibited in numerous shows in Ukraine.
Amaliia Komyz's Original Paintings: Combining Figurative with Abstract
Ukrainian Fund of Digitized Art digitized 18 works by Amaliia Komyz, including "Soil", "Eternal Crossroads", "The Basis of Beliefs", "Inner Voice", "A Night Accompanied by Unease", "Interlocutors", "The Snake", and many more.
The artist works in the style of psychological symbolism, combining figurative elements with abstract forms. Her practice reflects on themes of inner conflict, the nature of human imperfections and fears, as well as the duality of the forces that shape identity — individual, collective, and relational.
The most recurring motif in Amaliia's work is the face — embedded within geometric structures reminiscent of labyrinths, enigmatic symbols, or patterns.
