Ahranovska is a visual artist who worked mainly with painting until 2022. Her field of interest was the visual perception of a person, its features and development under the influence of modern people digital media. And also the question of how exactly the visual experience of the modern person, which is constantly changing, can interact with such a traditional medium as painting.

After February 2022, she turned to drawing, abandoning color for greater expressiveness and sharpness of images. Svitlana works with the theme of war and trauma, possibilities of recovery, issues of self-identification and connection generations, creating metaphorical images aimed at giving the viewer space to understand a certain problems, and become a starting point in his own reflections.
