Chromatic Resonance in the Ether of Canvas
This 90x90 cm 2021 work by artist Iryna Malynovska is a celebration of lyrical abstraction, where color and material take an almost tangible form.
Through a dialogue between spontaneity and reflection, Malynovska orchestrates a visual symphony where each brushstroke, each burst of pigment tells a different story.

Malynovska's painting technique showcases a mastery of impasto, where paint is applied in thick layers, creating relief and texture that draw the eye and invite touch.
Light appears to dance on the canvas's surface, interacting with depth and dynamic shadows to highlight emerging forms from the controlled chaos of colors. Shades of pink, mauve, and green, mixed with earth tones, suggest an organic scene, perhaps a secret garden at dusk or an abstract vision of blooming.

A contrast is observed between areas of dense, dark color and those where light seems to break through, as if the artist presents both the robustness of nature and its delicate ephemerality.
The brushwork is both precise and fluid, showing the confidence and intent behind each movement. There's an interplay between figuration and abstraction, where the observer is invited to freely interpret what they see.

The color palette is rich and complex, with a keen sense of balance between warm and cool hues. This creates a pictorial space where the viewer's eye can wander, get lost, and ultimately, find itself. The work can be seen as a metaphor for the human condition, full of complexities, contrasts, and yet strikingly beautiful.
