About this artwork
This drawing belongs to a series I created in 2019, born from my deep fascination with the emotional world of animals. When I look at a dog, my goal is to capture that profound, fleeting moment when we communicate without words, talking only with our eyes and movements.
This series holds a special place in my career, as it was a centerpiece of my solo exhibition in late 2019. I wanted to translate that unique gaze—one filled with loyalty, vulnerability,… and ancient memory—onto paper.
To ensure its preservation and elegance, this piece is presented in a high-quality 81x61 cm wooden frame. It is ready to bring its quiet, soulful presence and the warmth of that shared look into its new home.

« I work with painting, performance art, installation, and dance. I'm interested in the research of spaces with human presence and looking for situations that reveal dual reality and ambiguity. »
Yaryna Shumska is a multidisciplinary artist whose work bridges the gap between performance and abstract painting, creating what she calls an "archive of action."
She is a prize-winning Ukrainian artist whose works have been widely exhibited on a national level, as well as in Poland, France, Spain and the United States. Her artistic geography is truly global, ranging from the Venice International Performance Art Week and Tokyo to Bangkok, Barcelona, and the Arctic Action in Svalbard. A significant place in her practice is occupied by abstract painting from the 2008–2020 period, which served as a foundation for exploring the canvas as a space for "inhabiting" action. In these works, color and texture function not merely as visual elements, but as mediums for internal rhythm and energy. These canvases laid the groundwork for her current practice, where painting is transformed into a direct imprint of physical presence.
