Natalya Pravda

Natalia Pravda is a contemporary Ukrainian artist, born in 1986 in Dnipro, Ukraine. She graduated from the Pridneprovsky State Academy of Construction and Architecture in 2009. At first she was engaged in monumental painting and bas-relief, and then turned to easel painting and graphics. Over time, she developed her unique voice within figurative abstraction, deeply addressing the human form - especially the female and male nude - as a site of energy, identity and transformation. This is the time of her first achievements in art: 2012-2018 Ukraine group shows such as “Fata Morgana” (Museum “Literary Pridneprovie”), “Germinal” (Dnepropetrovsk Art Museum) and others in Dnipro and Kyiv. Because of the war in Ukraine, logistics, travel, curatorial connections - all this has become more complicated. Many Ukrainian artists find it difficult to build international institutional ties. Nevertheless, Natalia Pravda continues to actively exhibit and sell her work on major international online platforms, and her works are in collections around the world. Natalia is an artist of immeasurably personal expression, and this is a conscious stance. Her works are quite intimate, bodily and philosophical. Currently she is actively working in the following directions: Drawing (charcoal, pastel, mixed techniques), Painting (oil, natural pigments), Graphic installations and mixed techniques.
