Bio:

Diana Yevtukh is Ukrainian mixed media artist, best recognized for her series of the tree embroidery installations. Seamless fusion of art with nature earned virality and praise from highly respectable blogs and publications around the world. Besides embroidery, Diana is also active in fluid acrylic art, drawing, photography, and products design.

Statement:

The story of my tree embroidery series is all about a relationship with nature, revealing that a neighboring tree can be a living being with way more character than a scant look of hurrying passer-by captures. Assuming the empty spaces on the bark are scars, I wanted to fill them with new life, flowers, and hope. Each embroidery is my effort to convey a message, whether it’s about a life hidden in plain sight, celebration of spring, or healing the wounded heart of nature. I want people to question their relationship with the beautiful stoical giants they meet every day, and refresh their concept of being a part of nature and a city dweller at the same time.
