Painting full of passion and love of life.

The canvases painted by the young artist Nataliya Polischuk are the embodied reflection of herself, her nature and viewpoint. Undoubtedly, at first her compositions, which are so much abstracted from real life, make the viewer think of a limited notion of the still-life. However, in her case both the expression of the search for colour and composition, and the content of each painting are equally important. In order to get an insight into Natalya Polischuk’s world of painting, it is well worth getting acquainted with her poetry, in which we can find the notes of desperate love of life that are in harmony with her painting. By means of creative work the artist tries to find her own entity.
An essential characteristic of the painter’s canvases is some expressionistic tendencies that partially transform into abstractionistic nuances. Another peculiar feature of her paintings is a unity of accidental, as it were, brushstrokes that form a whole system inside the space of the canvas, and create images that are clearly understandable and close to the contemporary art lover. At times, the artist implies a certain mystery in her works, opposing surreal spots full of their inner content, thus emphasizing the importance of the themes raised by her, but hidden by the outer layer of the painting. She does it to express her own vision of correlation of harmony, conveying the emotional impulses, created by her perception of the world and civilization.
Nataliya Polischuk’s art of painting is full of passion and love of life, and at the same time it is lyrical. It is caused by the fact that she undergoes the creative process simultaneously with the formation of the work of art. In order to feel it, one must get deeper into the artist’s canvas, reliving her own stories of artistic being together with her.
