Summit's Steps is delighted to host another Final Friday event! Join us from 6 to 9pm on Friday May 31 for art by Ukrainian artist Zoriana Lylo-Otkovych. We will have refreshments, and live music by Matthew Mulnix from 6 to 8pm.
Zorіana Lylo-Otkovych was born in 1968 in the beautiful medieval city of Lviv in Ukraine. She studied at the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in Kyiv (Ukraine) Department of Art History.
Balancing on the edge of graphics and decorative and applied arts, she creates unique products that resonate with folk art.
As a graphic artist, Zoriana likes experiments: she combines ordinary graphics with various materials in her works, creating her own author's technique. This can be an ordinary cord of various kinds, which paints itself in the desired color; hot glue, fabrics, pieces of lace, wood and more. It also combines different styles - from naturalism to decorativism in one work and it acquires an interesting, somewhat unusual sound. Zoriana uses a bright color scheme. Motifs of trees, bushes, flowers predominate – what the artist sees around her, rethinking in her own way.
The artist is the founder of her own art studio "Zoriana KoloArt," where she teaches art and art therapy to adults and children. She uses a variety of themes and materials for her art classes. Her students have fun and get a finished artwork. The main idea of the studio is to create and to free the one’s mind.
Here in the United States, the artist continues her creative work and invites people to her art projects and workshops.
