Constellation – Hanna Zabudska Ukraine
Artist and artisan Hanna Zabudska mastered the depth of the tapestry-making craft at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative Applied Arts and design. In her creative work she interlaces the rich cultural heritage with the pictorial precision of painting, introducing new approaches to the decorative-applied arts to the modern audience.
The central figure is a woman who embodies nature’s force manifested in the raging elements. Everything is subordinated to this central figure. Both the conception and the dramatic embodiment of the tempest emerge through the character’s inner nature that gives birth to reflection of the universe.
Constellation is the balance of the duality in our perception of the world.
The tapestry took eight months to create.
