Art is a celebration of what it means to be alive
Bohdan Svyrydov creates captivating artworks characterized by bold, expressive brushstrokes and loose, subtle drawings. His vibrant color palette and appreciation for Wabi-Sabi, a Japanese concept that finds beauty in the imperfect, are hallmarks of his work.
Feeling a profound need to bring something bright and good into this world, Bohdan strives through his art to restore the balance between creation and destruction. His work aims to be a safe space where the viewer can be alone with themselves, providing a moment of reflection and solace in a chaotic world.
Transforming the idea of time from a mere chronological measure to an abstract phenomenon, Bohdan imagines time as a mosaic of varied moments, each with its unique narrative. He conceptualizes time as a cultural narrative, leaving behind visual footprints that chart societal evolution.
