Art Conversation with artist Alina Pyatnova

Art exhibition Between Silence and Surface. The Appearance of Skin
Curated exhibition by Tetiana Bairaka

This exhibition presents a dialogue between two contemporary artists: Ukrainian artist Alina Pyatnova (Limpika Lilac) and British artist Anthony-Noel Kelly.
Presented by Ukrainian Art House in London in partnership with Association of Ukrainians in Great Britain, the Shevchenko Library & Archive, and with the support of the Embassy of Ukraine in the United Kingdom.

The exhibition explores portraiture as more than representation. It is a way of seeing and experiencing the human image.
The portrait exists between presence and disappearance, between surface and inner meaning.
It becomes unstable and constantly shifts depending on how we look at it.

Artistic dialogue: The two artists approach the human figure in different ways.
Alina Pyatnova works with luminous surfaces, colour and material tension. Her works create a sense of clarity and intensity, where the image feels highly present and visually powerful.
Anthony-Noel Kelly focuses on quiet psychological presence. His portraits are more restrained, often reduced to essential form and inner stillness.
Together, their works create a contrast between intensity and silence, surface and depth.

Between Silence and Surface. The Appearance of Skin
A Contemporary Art Exhibition

Exhibition Dates: 18 May – 30 June 2026
Venue: 49 Linden Gardens London W2 4HG
Opening Hours: Monday – Friday | 11 am – 5 pm

Ukrainian Art House in London presents Between Silence and Surface. The Appearance of Skin, a curated exhibition bringing together works by Ukrainian artist Limpika Lilac (Alina Pyatnova) and British artist Anthony-Noel Kelly.

The exhibition explores contemporary portraiture as a space of psychological tension and shifting perception, where the image moves between presence and disappearance, surface and interiority. Through two distinct artistic approaches, the exhibition examines how portraiture can exist between visibility and silence, physical form and emotional perception.

Pyatnova works through luminous surface and material tension, creating portraits suspended between realism and sculptural stillness. Kelly reduces the image to quiet psychological presence, where the figure appears fragile, restrained, and contemplative. Together, their works create a dialogue between inner stillness and surface intensity.

Portraiture here becomes not simply an image, but a way of seeing. The exhibition questions how we perceive the human face today, and whether the portrait can still hold emotional and psychological presence in an age of unstable images.

What does portraiture mean today, when reality and perception no longer fully align?
Can portraiture still connect physical form with emotional experience?
Where is the boundary between what we see and how we perceive it?

Ukrainian Art House in London presents artwork by Victoria Shul: “Gilded Flow”

Ukrainian Art House in London, together with Save Art in Ukraine, presents Strength in Unity, an exhibition celebrating 100 Years of the UK–Ukraine Partnership Agreement.
21–28 October 2025 | Opening Night: 23 October | 5:30 – 8:30 PM
BobCat Gallery, London SW15 1TW

Among the featured artists is Victoria Shul, a contemporary Ukrainian artist born in 1984 and now based in London. A self-taught painter, Shul fuses abstraction and symbolism in richly textured, emotionally charged compositions. Working with acrylics, oils, gold leaf, textured paste, epoxy resin, and diverse mixed media, she creates layered narratives exploring transformation, healing, and the inner landscape of the soul.
At the exhibition, Shul presents her captivating work:
Gilded Flow captures the harmony between movement and stillness. The diagonal flow of colours evokes a sense of energy and transition, while the vertical gold stripes add a refined touch of texture and elegance. The gold leaf introduces a luminous depth, uniting dynamic rhythm with serene balance in a composition that radiates both power and grace.
Through her art, Victoria Shul invites viewers to explore transformation as a luminous and meditative process — an awakening of resilience, beauty, and emotional depth.
