About
My name is Lialia, and I was born in Kharkiv. My background is far from the arts — I hold a Master’s degree in Cybersecurity from KhNURE. My creative practice is a continuous, self-taught journey of experimentation that began in childhood. Since then, I’ve explored a variety of fields: portraiture, digital art, photography, writing, watercolor, and abstract painting.
The war and my forced relocation to Lviv became a turning point. The sense of life’s fragility and a deepened awareness of my own vulnerability sharpened how I perceive the world. Abstract painting became my way of expressing the elusive nature of existence — a way to reflect both inner chaos and harmony at once.
I create zines that combine visual art with my texts, working across different mediums to express creativity through art, words, and code.
Unzipped
Fragments of inner weather. Notes, pulses, unsent messages. Not always meant to be read — but here they are, unzipped.
