Early life and education
[edit]Olesya Hudyma was born in Ternopil, Ukraine, on May 10, 1980. She graduated from Lviv University with a degree in journalism. Afterwards, she worked as a journalist in Ternopil print media. She eventually quit journalism in 2007 and became a full-time painter.[1]
Career
[edit] |
Hudyma's works are systematized in the series: "Dreams", "Steps", "Angels of Peace for Ukraine", "Ukrainian Madonna", "Flowers", which are made in an eclectic mix of artistic directions: expressionism, abstractionism, symbolism, naive art, mathematism, magical realism and postmodernism. In general, the artist's works can be classified as an intuitive form of painting.[2]
In August 2018, the Ukrainian Postal Service issued a postage stamp with Hudyma's picture "Bride", as a part of the "Love is Life" series. Another picture, "Tree of Life", was used for a first day cover.
In December 2024, Hudyma's "Christmas mood" painting became a visual backdrop on screens of the Headquarters of the United Nations during a thematic reception organised by the Permanent Representative of Ukraine to the United Nations for delegations of Member States and representatives of the United Nations Secretariat.
Her artworks are displayed in private collections in Ukraine, United States, Canada, Armenia, England, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and Poland.[3][better source needed]
In December 2022, Hudyma had her first solo exhibition in Italy.[4]
Personal life
[edit]In 2022, due to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, Hudyma relocated with her family to Italy.[4]
