Bio

Nita Kravets is a Ukrainian artist who has been weaving her own world of art for over 25 years, creating in a style that’s uniquely her own.

Born in 1979, she spent her early years in the mystical landscapes of Zaporizhzhia, where her journey in art began. She graduated from the Enerhodar Art School and continued to study applied arts in Zaporizhzhia. In 2000, she moved to Kyiv, where the vibrant colors of psychedelic culture, music, and art awakened a new creative spirit in her. From then on, her work transformed, evolving into something deeply personal, rich in character, and distinctly her own.

Between 2000 and 2010, Nita poured her artistic visions into the design and decoration of trance and techno festivals in Crimea. She collaborated with the legendary Kazantip Festival, crafting towering sculptures of metal and concrete, vast murals, and intricate decorations that brought these gatherings to life.

Since 2010, her paintings have been showcased in galleries at international psychedelic festivals. Nita has also participated in live painting at major European festivals, including Ozora, Boom, and Psy-Fi, among others, further immersing her work in the vibrant energy of these gatherings.

In Kyiv, her personal gallery has nestled on Andriyivskyy Descent since 2018, a sanctuary of her ever-evolving creativity. Over time, her art has transformed—from enchanting, decorative patterns and whimsical creatures to profound, mythical beings emerging from the depths of the subconscious.

Nita’s work is crafted in a signature technique: oil-based fluorescent paints on black cotton fabric or canvas, where vibrant colors glow against the dark, creating a surreal, otherworldly effect. She also explores ceramics and sculpture, drawing inspiration from folk art, ancient myths, magic, and the spiritual philosophies of diverse cultures.

Each piece is an invitation to step into a world of magic, to encounter strange creatures and glimpses of the unknown that feel as if they’ve been nestled within us all along. Her art speaks to the universal language of the soul, connecting us to the mystical, to our shared origins as children of the cosmos.
