Iryna Klyba, 1968, born in Kiev, Ukraine

The main philosophy of Iryna’s artworks is a philosophy of reflection, where the reflection itself becomes a mystery.
The artist represents the ever-changing subtle and elusive state of nature. The figures, that fit perfectly into the landscape, create an unforgettable sense of harmony and strengthen the general feel of the work, the particular mood. That is what makes all of Iryna’s artworks so light and warm, so sophisticated and full of inspiration.
