About Yevheniia Hryhoryan
The artist was born in 1983. She studied at the School of Fine Arts in Kyiv (1998–2000). She continued her education at the Kyiv National Economic University (2000–2005) and the Institute of Psychodrama, PAfE, Kyiv (2018–2020). She also attended Classes of Classical Portrait (2019–2020) and Classes of Contemporary Portrait (2019–2022) in Kyiv, the School of Land Art at the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (NAOMA) (2024), and the course “Contemporary Art,” SKVOT (2025).
Yevheniia worked as a marketing specialist for a long time, but in 2019, she decided to change her path and become an artist. Since then, she has devoted herself entirely to art.
Yevheniia Hryhoryan’s art practice is marked by participation in various residencies, including “The World Through the Eyes of an Artist” (Ukraine, 2020), Art Circle International (Slovenia, 2023), Kilowac (Lithuania, 2024), DFEWA (Romania, 2024), and Serendipity, Art Laboratory, Port of Culture (Ukraine, 2024–2025).
Yevheniia Hryhoryan’s paintings have been exhibited in numerous solo and group shows in Ukraine and abroad. Currently, she lives and works in Kyiv.
Yevheniia Hryhoryan’s Art Style: Questioning Established Norms
In her practice, Yevheniia explores themes of corporeality, ecology, feminism, and psychology, questioning established notions of norms, boundaries, and the nature of change.
She considers the body as a space shaped by experience, culture, and memory. Central to her practice is the collision of the personal and the collective, the physical and the emotional, the biological and the social.
Through experiments with form and materials, Yevheniia explores vulnerability as a resource, loss as experience, and art as an act of transformation.
As the artist herself notes, in her practice, memory does not exist apart from matter — it grows through it, like roots breaking through the concrete of time. She works at the boundary of the corporeal and the metaphorical, using materials as carriers of memory that resist oblivion.
