Iryna Semko — Reflections of Identity: A Kaleidoscope of Self-Portraits
Through a kaleidoscope of bright colors, abstract forms, and unique materials, each photograph reveals a unique facet of the artist's inner world, serving as both an expression of personal identity and a testament to resilience in the face of adversity. This project invites viewers to reflect on their own identity, emotions, and the diverse ways in which we express ourselves, even in the most challenging of circumstances. And where art becomes a powerful tool for healing and understanding.
Iryna Semko is a visual artist and photographer from Odesa, Ukraine. A finalist and winner of photography competitions, she has participated in exhibitions in Ukraine, Switzerland, and Germany. Her works are in private collections. Her art often explores themes of self-discovery, the search for one's place in the world, and the interaction between humans and nature. Nature serves as both inspiration and a symbol of harmony or disharmony. She grapples with fundamental questions of existence, consciousness, and reality, often using her art as a visual diary of thoughts and emotions. Her approach is intuitive and experimental, with an emphasis on visual aesthetics and the pleasure of the creative process. She finds joy in the process, allowing space for humor and unexpected results.
