UFDA's Articles: Insights into Ukraine's Art and Culture 93

In new episode of the UFDA Podcast, host Anna Avetova speaks with photographer and visual artist Artem Humilevskyi — author of the series GIANT and Roots, winner of international awards, and one of the most striking voices of a new sincerity in Ukrainian photography. 

Ukrainian Fund of Digitized Art (UFDA) has officially expanded to include the works of Olena Shtepura. 

UFDA continues its mission to preserve the country’s creative legacy. We are excited to announce that artist Taras Haida is the latest addition to our online archive.

У живописі Катерини Лисовенко тіло стає місцем зустрічі особистого досвіду і великої історії. Її роботи поєднують феміністичну оптику, релігійну образність і політичну рефлексію над насильством, війною та людською природою. У цій розмові художниця розповідає про різницю між мистецькою освітою в Україні та Австрії, про роботу в міжнародному контексті, про зміну власної художньої мови після 2022 року і про те, чому сьогодні для неї важливо "малювати вразливість".

In Kateryna Lysovenko's painting, the body becomes a site where personal experience meets grand history. Her works bring together a feminist perspective, religious imagery, and a political reflection on violence, war, and human nature. In this conversation, the artist speaks about the differences between art education in Ukraine and Austria, working within an international context, the transformation of her artistic language after 2022, and why it is important for her today to "paint vulnerability".

In the final episode of UFDA Podcast’s second season, host Anna Avetova talks with Kyiv‑based artist and muralist Volodymyr Manzhos, better known as Waone.

In the new episode of the UFDA Podcast, host Anna Avetova talks with Kyiv‑based artist Alina Zamanova about choosing art almost by accident, learning oil painting from YouTube, and how the full‑scale invasion split her life and practice into a sharp "before" and "after."

Yevgen Nikiforov shares his experience working with international media, collaborating with UFDA, the ethical challenges of photographing during wartime, and the role of digital documentation as a form of resistance and responsibility.
