Borys Sheremeta
He works creatively in the fields of iconography and painting. One of the main directions of his artistic exploration is the use of lines and geometric elements. These elements form the basis for constructing compositions, enriching them with narrative content. Additionally, the artist experiments with lines in abstract art, where they become the primary means of expression. Here, the line gains freedom and transforms in form, flexibility, and thickness, generating new visual ideas. The diversity of tonalities and contrasts allows him to explore the interaction of elements, express movement, and convey dynamics.
