Vladyslav Riaboshtan’s Art Style

Since his childhood, the artwork of Vladyslav Riaboshtan has been inspired by factories, railways, unfinished subways, and many other industrial objects. Even after he moved to another city, he maintained a desire to capture such familiar places. His art aims to preserve the unique atmosphere of these locations, which had a lasting influence on his personal development over the years.

Before the war in Ukraine began, the artist worked on a series of paintings dedicated to the subway. However, the concept of the project has shifted to portray the subway as a shelter, a safe zone from rockets and explosions. The war has changed the perception of many things for Ukrainians, and the artist seeks to show how this experience has altered both what he depicts and why.
