Katerina Atamañuk is a multidisciplinary artist in constant formation. Her work unfolds between painting, watercolor, and performative gesture, where body and matter merge into a single surface. She works from an introspective gaze, exploring the feminine, the emotional, and the psychic as territories of artistic inquiry.
Her recent production revolves around two main axes. On one hand, the creation of an imaginary connected to the firmament: stars, celestial bodies, and myths that expand the symbolic toward the cosmic. On the other, a visceral investigation into the experience of inhabiting a woman’s body, understood as a space of memory, desire, and vulnerability. In one of her latest series, the artist takes this search to the extreme —painting literally with her own blood, in a gesture that fuses the physical and the spiritual, the ritual and the pictorial.
Atamañuk’s work moves between oil and watercolor, between the figurative and the dreamlike. Her paintings emerge from a tension between the sacred and the intimate, where the astral and the carnal touch. In that encounter, painting becomes body, the wound becomes symbol, and art reveals itself as an act of surrender.
