Yuna Galejeva

As a musicologist, I approach painting with the mindset of a musician, drawn to the world of abstraction. I strive to imbue my paintings with a dynamic, musical quality that captures the flow of time and thought. Inspiration arises not solely from music but also from nature, literature, theater, philosophy, psychology, and more. This diverse range of influences broadens my perspective on life, allowing me to uncover essential elements—beauty, ideas, thoughts, and emotions—that cleanse the soul. My preferred medium is oils and acrylics on canvas, where I value the subtleties of color, spontaneity, and the freedom of brushstrokes. I embrace the role of color as the central figure in my compositions, emphasizing rhythm and light. This aesthetic resonates with minimalism, guiding the viewer inward toward introspection. My technique varies, alternating between soft, meditative strokes and bold, expressive ones, always serving the conceptual essence. The desire to paint is a constant presence in my life; it's through this creative act that I find my true vitality.
