Anna Samoilovych
Artist
(b. 1985, Kyiv, Ukraine) is a Ukrainian intuitive multidisciplinary artist, currently based in Amsterdam. She primarily works in graphics, drawing with liner and watercolor, exploring everyday details that inspire new compositions. Photography helps her capture moments, while collage combines painting and photography into unexpected visual connections. In her practice, she also explores the interaction of space, materials, and documentation through land art.

Artist statement
Each of my works is a unique journey filled with symbols and characters that shape magical, fantastical, and deeply realistic worlds. My art is a dialogue between different dimensions and a pursuit of harmony.

I create works in the styles of naïve art, surrealism, and symbolism, drawing inspiration from nature, travels, exploration of places, and real-life stories. My pieces reflect the beauty, strength, and resilience of the environment and people, uniting imagination and reality.
