Description
This captivating artwork intertwines nature and human form, seamlessly blending a female figure with the rugged textures of a tree trunk. Her body is partially concealed by organic materials, including an array of delicate flowers and foliage, symbolizing the unity between humanity and the natural world. The use of transparent materials, possibly plastic, juxtaposes nature with synthetic elements, creating a striking visual dichotomy. The earthy tones of the setting, paired with the vibrant greens and subtle blossoms, evoke a sense of harmony. The composition skillfully balances the organic and the artificial, inviting viewers to ponder the coexistence and impact of human intervention in nature. This piece uniquely challenges perceptions, encouraging a dialogue on environmental consciousness and the fragile beauty of our ecosystem.
Presentation
Valeriia Burliuk is a spatial visual artist working at the intersection of photography, installation and bioart. Trained in art, design and performance in Moscow, she gradually moved towards expanded spatial practices in which images become objects and environments. In 2022–2023 she was a fellowship researcher and visiting artist at the Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany. She currently lives and works between Berlin, Valencia and London, developing projects that connect artistic intuition with research-based approaches.
Artist statement
For Valeriia, space is the primary medium. It is something that breathes, responds, and draws the viewer into a whole-body experience. Her practice is structured as work with the environment: from photographic series that grow into installative objects, to bioart projects where materiality and scientific processes become a language of expression.
Her background in research and education (including her fellowship at Bauhaus University) brings precision and methodology to her work, while her poetic and physical approach opens this structure to sensorial experience. In her photographic and installation projects, as well as in her exhibition designs, space functions as an organism in which sound, light, texture, temperature and rhythm interact, creating a soft, tactile field of attention that gently leads the viewer toward clarity.
