On November 13, the first personal exhibition of artist Liubov Paraniuk opened at the Central City Library named after M.L. Kropyvnytsky.
Someone knows her as a master of Tavria painting. But it turns out that for a long time she hid her passion for artistic fabric painting from the public. She pours out female emotions, excitement, hopes and aspirations on the canvas.
"What are the paintings about? About moments of a woman's life. About love, about children. About "Guardian of the Family". About bright flashes, about sensuality. About losses. About everything. Everything that a woman experiences, everything that she lives with. About the secret corners of life. About hidden moments of a woman's fate," notes Valentyna Kryvtsova, head of the Cultural and Artistic Association "Art-Spokusa".
Liubov Paraniuk's paintings radiate a light, gentle energy. For the artist, artistic painting on fabric is an opportunity to emotionally relax and share her extremely sensual inner world with the viewer.
The exhibition features 12 works. The sea, flowers, lighthouses, and motherhood. These are the artist's most beloved works, dear to her heart and soul.
"When I am overwhelmed by love, I want to create something romantic. When I feel a surge of warmth, of motherhood, I create a picture that shows this facet - me as a woman. When I want to show that piece of paradise that I imagine, which is the most pleasant memory for me - I paint the sea. Because I am from Ochakiv. I paint the sky, I paint the light. Flowers from my garden. Because my house with my flowers remained in Kutsuruba. And when I want to return to those happy hours - I paint flowers," says Liubov Paraniuk.
On this day, pani Liubov was congratulated on the opening of her exhibition by friends and colleagues, craftswomen of the Cultural and Artistic Association "Art-Spokusa", Mykolaiv City Mayor's independent advisor - Artem Kryvtsov and head of the Department for Culture and Protection of Cultural Heritage of the Mykolaiv City Council - Yurii Liubarov.
"No matter what happens outside, no matter what happens around us, our soul must see beauty. And that's why today this is already a traditional place for opening such exhibitions, you are a famous craftswoman, known for your work with Tavria painting. And today we see a completely different style here and it's very pleasant. Therefore, I congratulate you on the opening of the exhibition," Yurii Liubarov said during the solemn event.
Psychologists have such a concept - people of the same field's value. This is how they define the closest people, similar in temperament, character traits and aspirations. "They are not afraid of challenges, generating ideas and are in constant creative search," - this is what Ruslana Sikalenko, a methodologist, expert and trainer of the NGO "Center for Adult Training and Education "South" says about her friends - Valentyna Kryvtsova and Liubov Paraniuk.
"Our creative tandem is always about love, creativity. About love for people, for our city, for our big and small Motherland. About inspiration, about people and joy during destruction. About joy during war," shares Ruslana Sikalenko.
Many things in the library were new that day. For example, for the first time, someone heard the wonderful sound of Vasyl Ilechko's pan flute, who provided musical accompaniment of the solemn event.
