The art world is about to be swept up in a golden wave of inspiration as Skaya Art Agency proudly announces the launch of its new art season in collaboration with the iconic ME Dubai hotel. This architectural marvel, a testament to the visionary late Zaha Hadid, is set to come alive with an exhibition that promises to be nothing short of extraordinary – the ‘Art in Shades of Gold’ exhibition by the immensely talented Ukrainian artist, Yana Rusnak. This exhibition marks the inception of ME Dubai’s Cultural Connections initiative, and it’s a month-long residency that is bound to redefine the contemporary art scene in the heart of the United Arab Emirates.
Yana Rusnak, a name synonymous with innovation and artistry, brings a unique blend of vibrant animalism and abstract expressionism to the forefront in her artwork. A maestro with over 7 years of artistic prowess, Yana’s creations serve as allegories to the intertwining of human emotions and character with the animal world. Her works, graced with bold geometric shapes and vivid colors, are masterpieces that transcend the boundaries of conventionality.
The ‘Art in Shades of Gold’ exhibition will be hosted in the sophisticated Art Gallery area on the 3rd floor of ME Dubai, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the creative universe that Yana Rusnak has meticulously crafted. The exhibition is open to the public from Thursday, 7th September to Monday, 9th October 2023, offering ample time for art aficionados and curious minds alike to soak in the brilliance of her creations.
Anastasia Kopijevski, the visionary Founder and Owner of Skaya Art Agency, expresses her delight in collaborating with both ME Dubai and Yana Rusnak for this grand endeavor. She emphasizes how the exquisite architecture of ME Dubai, a masterpiece in itself, finds resonance with Yana’s unique paintings, fostering a deep appreciation for contemporary art and igniting boundless imagination.
Yana Rusnak’s artwork exudes a palpable energy and a connection to celestial radiance and nature. Her skillful use of triangles, representing concepts such as balance, harmony, tension, and integration, infuses her pieces with dynamism and movement. Each triangle, with its sharp angles and dynamic lines, becomes a conduit for conveying human aspirations and life-affirming energy. The symbolism of triangles is further enriched by the number three, denoting symmetry, understanding, and the birth of wisdom.
In her works, Yana masterfully employs the colors of two precious metals – Gold and Silver. While Silver embodies the moon’s qualities of innocence, purity, and mercy, Gold exudes the splendor of the sun and the enduring quality of non-deterioration. This harmonious marriage of symbolism and color leads to an artistic dialogue with the universe, where music, light, nature, and the cosmos converge, revealing glimpses of the artist’s aspirations and the vivacity of life itself. Each of Yana’s masterpieces also contains a precious gold nugget, a testament to her intricate and meticulous artistry.
Yana Rusnak’s artistic magic has transcended borders, captivating international audiences and finding its place in private collections across the globe. Her works have graced the walls of prominent commercial buildings and galleries in cosmopolitan cities such as Miami, New Delhi, Cairo, Beirut, Moscow, Riyadh, Kiev, London, and Geneva. The United Arab Emirates, no stranger to Yana’s captivating art, has previously witnessed her creative prowess in various hotels, galleries, and the esteemed World Art Dubai exhibitions.
As Yana Rusnak’s month-long residency at ME Dubai unfurls, it harmoniously intertwines with the hotel’s awe-inspiring architecture and interior design. The result is an aesthetic symphony that invites visitors and art enthusiasts to immerse themselves in a sanctuary of creativity. Guests can traverse the hotel’s innovative spaces, allowing their imaginative desires to be ignited by the ‘Art in Shades of Gold’ exhibition.
