Painting allows me to slow this flow down, to examine the connections within it and to marvel at them.

Biography
Eva Tkachenko is a contemporary artist. In 2024, she completed individual training in painting and drawing under the guidance of an artist and educator.
Working with acrylic and ink on canvas, Eva Tkachenko explores repetition, transformation, and the cyclical nature of time. Figures, animals, and organic forms often appear doubled, reflected, or placed alongside one another, suggesting echoes of the same event rather than separate moments.
Her practice centers on the continuous movement between opposing states: blooming and fading, love and separation, death and birth. By interrupting this movement and holding it within a single image, Tkachenko creates a visual pause in which connections that might otherwise pass unnoticed become visible.
Color, layered surfaces, and physical traces play an essential role in this process. Rather than simply depicting an event, she is interested in what remains after it—the emotional and material residue that becomes the beginning of something new.
Through repetition and layering, Eva Tkachenko approaches painting as a way of slowing time, examining the intensity of human connection, and making transformation itself visible.
