Viktoria Kondratieva - Visual Artist

Vyshyvanka Day, FREE public event on 15 May in Triskel Arts Centre! This Ukrainian holiday is devoted to preserving the folk tradition of creating richly embroidered ethnic clothing. Visitors were guided by Viktoria Kondratieva in screen printing custom T-shirts in the Vyshyvanka style, inspired by the iconic embroidered patterns that honour Ukrainian heritage. After that, dive into the world of Petrykivka painting - the beautiful, colourful folk art of Ukraine. This event was offered as part of Studios of Sanctuary, the training and mentorship programme for artists from migrant, refugee, and asylum-seeking backgrounds.

My print "Triptych: The Land of Spirits" was on display at the Cork Printmakers Members Exhibition at Lavit Gallery. This print is a visual meditation on the journey of the soul — a tribute to those who have been lost but will never be forgotten. It's deeply rooted in my personal history and the collective memory of Ukraine, capturing the moment when innocent souls ascend to the afterlife, merging with the land, the sky, and the eternal.
