Tanya Dulyaba is a young artist who is exhibiting her work for the first time at a solo exhibition in Chicago, on February 4, 2022, at the Ukrainian National Museum. "Home away from home" is the title of the exhibition, which lays down the philosophy of our existence under the sky, far from Ukraine, and from the home town in Radekhiv, Lviv region, where she studied at art school, embroidered, painted, was interested in ethnography, dreamed of traveling.
After school she entered the Ukrainian National Forestry University, choosing the Department of Design. Did you imagine until recently that more than 1,000 works created by her would be sold to North Carolina and on the Outer Banks Peninsula would be the decoration of many luxury homes overlooking the ocean? The energy to climb to the top of professionalism gives her the desire to constantly improve herself, continuing her studies with American masters of design (after a bachelor's degree in design in 2013 Tanya continued her studies in the United States, in Albemarle, North Carolina, College of Design). It is not a coincidence that all local newspapers and magazines, encouraging colored advertisements to buy houses by the ocean, place interiors decorated by Tanya Dulyaba, the chief designer of the largest investment and development company "Saga Constraction". Her paintings can be purchased at large furniture stores in Outer Banks, and journalists at North Beach Sun have repeatedly written about Tanya Dulyaba, nominating her as one of the most creative young artists. It is distinguished by its "island" style - the waves of the ocean, the sun, birds and wild horses with manes, which are combed by the wind, skillfully conveys a state of peace and tranquility. Her works are light in plot, atmospheric and moody, done in light warm tones.
Tatiana draws inspiration for the color palette from the sunny nature and Radekhiv green slopes. At the exhibition, visitors feel the warmth of this region, located 8000 km from Chicago, the house to which Tanya returns every year.
Another talented artist is Christina Kozyuk, who in 2005 became a Bachelor of Design, studying at the Department of Design in our university. A talented girl from Chortkiv, Ternopil region, was thrown overseas by fate in Sedona, Arizona, USA. Christina is an artist and now the owner of the Kozyuk Gallery.
A girl with a big heart, whose works are exhibited in museums in Ukraine, France and the USA, donated her canvas to the Charitable Fundraiser for the purchase of medical equipment for the Nadvirna Children's Hospital. Actively supports projects of other charitable organizations, including the Union of Ukrainian Women of America. In December 2021, during the celebration of St. Andrew's Party at a concert by Oleg Skrypka and the band "VV", the canvas "Blue Roses" was sold at a charity auction for $ 3,000.
We are happy and proud that our graduates, even while far abroad, do not forget about their origins, are inspired by native nature. Thus, studying at the Department of Design of UNFU, they receive a high level of education in both design and fine arts, and become successful everywhere, achieve excellence and professionalism.
