The painting depicts a figure of a young pregnant woman, a personification of the Mavka—a symbol of fertility and the natural continuation of life. The woman is presented as a paragon of motherhood, framed by carved symbols of Kievan Rus that embrace her body and leaves, which are an extension of her hair, reflecting the uninterrupted connection between human, nature, and culture.
Breathing life into classical themes, Pchelnykova touches on the philosophy of existentialism and phenomenology, posing questions about the inner existence and essence of human nature in the context of socio-cultural evolution. Thus, the connection with nature and the world, transcending individual boundaries, is revealed through delicate flowers symbolizing fertility and the life-giving force, cascading from the heavens directly into the womb, indicating the perpetual reproduction of life.
The technique of the painting, with large swaths of color intensely utilized in the background, and the simplification of the woman's face free from excessive details, creates a clear focus on symbolic content, offering the viewer a subjective sense of experience and a visual purification from the oversaturation of the modern visual space.
The foundation of this philosophical-aesthetic vision can be found in the works of Ana Mendieta and Paula Modersohn-Becker, from whom Pchelnykova draws inspiration to create paintings.
MATERIALS: There is an original acrylic painting on the gallery stretched canvas.I use traditional oil and acrylic paints to create multi-layered visual narratives that resonate with the symbols and ornamentation of historical cultures. My works are filled with color, ethnic decor, and are illustrative at the same time.I paint figuratively and I like to mix the naivistic with the realistic. Regardless of what Im painting, it's always an atmosphere that is depicted.

All of my paintings are professionally packaged with great care for delivery.
