Iva Urban

Iva Urban is a Ukrainian contemporary artist based in London, working primarily with abstraction. Her paintings are defined by impasto textures, layered surfaces, and minimalist yet versatile palettes that move from monochrome to color while maintaining a refined visual language. Her practice explores memory, identity, and transformation, translating psychological states into tactile surfaces where material becomes both gesture and silence. Balancing restraint with emotional resonance, Urban develops a distinctive artistic language that is simultaneously contemporary and timeless.
