Artwork location: Ukraine

Zakhar Shevchuk’s Rest (2017) is a pastel and acrylic work on paper (49x100 cm) that captures the intimacy of a reclining nude. Created from life, the composition reflects the artist’s exploration of how color can be used to model the body without losing its integrity. Hues of violet, orange, and soft grey intermingle across the figure, revealing form through atmosphere rather than strict contour.

The approach echoes the great pastel masters such as Edgar Degas, yet Shevchuk brings a contemporary sensibility by blending pastel with acrylic, enhancing depth and texture. The body seems to float within the paper, its presence both fragile and luminous.

This large-scale pastel is rare within Shevchuk’s oeuvre, making it particularly significant for collectors. It reflects both his academic training and his experimental drive, demonstrating how life drawing can become a space for painterly innovation. Currently held in a private collection, the artist remains open to commissions in this style.

Presentation

“I try to simplify the form to the point when it feels that nothing else shall be removed and only the essential elements remain. I transfer my impressions and self-reflections about objects into my paintings. I express what I feel rather than how I see, often arriving somewhere between figurative and abstract art." Zakhar Shevchuk

Zakhar Shevchuk is a young professional painter and draftsman, he holds a master in arts degree from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (Kyiv, Ukraine) and now himself teaches at the academy. His artworks are held in public and private collections worldwide, furthermore, he often participates in various public projects, such as painting murals and other monumental installations.

With years Zakhar's artistic style moved away from academic realism (which always tended closer to expressionism) and towards the style that in somewhere on the edge between figurative art and abstraction. In many of his works, even those that may seem as fully abstract ones, you will find some elements that were intentionally added, aiming to trick your brain into believing that you have finally found something recognisable, something that matches the reality, but then you suddenly loose it, starting the search over and over again.
