Trajectory

Halyna Dubyk is a Ukrainian visual artist who lives and works in Lviv.

The artist was born in 2003 in Lviv Oblast. She studied at the Lviv National Academy of Arts, specialising in Painting, where she earned both her bachelor's and master's degrees.

Her work has been shown at group exhibitions in Ukraine and abroad. In 2025–2026, Halyna took part in the (post-)System exhibition series, presented in Kyiv, Mechelen and Lviv. Since 2023, the artist has been a member of the European League of Institutes of the Arts (ELIA) and has joined the international Abakanowicz Fellowship programme.

The artist's practice spans painting, graphic art and installation. Among Halyna Dubyk’s original paintings are Verticals (2020), Conservation III (2023), On the Verge of the Subconscious (2023), and others.

UFDA has digitised the artist's work Trajectory (2026), which can now be viewed in full resolution and in XR format on the organisation's website.

In her practice, the artist explores corporeality and its "transformations" under the pressure of environment and lived experience. Her visual language is grounded in the deconstruction of the figurative image and its interaction with mechanical structures and space. Personal experience continually shifts the vantage point from which the artist views the body. Corporeality thus remains an open field of enquiry, without a final definition.

In her paintings, Halyna works primarily in oils, using multilayered application, transparent and semi-transparent layers, and the partial removal of paint from the surface. In her graphic work, her principal medium is graphite.
