Art works

(November, 30 - December, 14 - 2007)

     Anzhelika Rudnytska as an artist was born in the hardest time for Rudnytska as a women. Tied down to bed with an unexpected illness, Anzhelika could not sing, could not go on the stage or even work on TV. But as an artist she could not stay away from work. So in a counterbalance to the illness, pain and loneliness she invented her own world, filled with bright paints, archaic characters and cheerful force.

     Psychologists say that art helped her to recover from illness. Art critics asserts that Rudnytska created the iconostasis of genetic memory of the Ukrainian people.

     Based on the centuries-old traditions of our folk art, works of an artist is absolutely unic and at the same time multi ethnic. Anzhelika succeeded to convert folk embroidery in a modern art.

     Her technique christened as an embroidered painting. Main and favorite theme of Anzhelika is trees.

     Fantastic, unique, luxurious - they are growing in Rudnytskas poetic „Garden of virtues” and with its beauty bring spectators to the eternity.

     Tree is a symbol of life and family, the echo of paradise source and knowledge.

     Tree is so simple and clear plant. And at the same time so mysterious and full of sacral maintenance sign.

     Tree is one of the ancient elements and symbols of ancient culture kept by masters of the first crafts and beloved by modern masters.

     Trees were one of the main symbols of Ukrainian towels, Christmas carols, fairy tales and myths.

     Ancient definition about trees in national creativity is an original reference to our mind and feelings.
