Clare Arts Office to present exhibition called Ukrainian View of Ireland

CLARE Arts Office in conjunction with the Cultúrlann Sweeney Gallery are set to present an exhibition of paintings by Yeni, an artist from Ukraine.

Yeni was born and raised in a small town and from an early age, she began to draw portraits of classmates, design posters and engage in all kinds of artwork at school.

She participated in many art competitions and designed classes and teleconferences and wrote, both on the walls and on canvases.

Most of all, Yeni is inspired by nature, the world of animals, characters from children’s cartoons, love between mother and cubs, and she also likes to depict a family idyll on her canvases.

For her work, she received a large number of awards and was written about in the local newspapers. She studied at the Moscow University of Arts.

In 2009 she organised an exhibition in Kyiv. Her paintings were bought by clients from Croatia, Taiwan, Ukraine and the US.
