The works from the Invasion series, which was launched before the full-scale war in Ukraine, have received their sensual continuation in a symbolic combination of patriotic blue and yellow colors and the artist's characteristic technique.

Independence refers to the symbols of the nation, which are encoded in ornamental colors. The author presented a complex code of spiritual identification in a clear, concise and balanced manner. What is the price of freedom? The war in Ukraine is a litmus test for the entire democratic world. The much-desired victory is perceived as a light in the midst of pitch darkness, but its other side is bloody. In turn, the shape of a regularsquare acquires a symbolic meaning.

At the same time, it is worth paying attention to the Repletion diptych, which does not guide the viewer in a terminological labyrinth, but is a holistic perceptual expression of the analyzed experience.

The exposition of the creative Invasion series by Nazar Symotiuk is a vivid conceptualization of the problems of our time. We are presented with a visual anthem of Ukrainian identity, history, and indestructibility.

With his creative Vibration series, Nazar Symotiuk proves that the optical line is no less direct emotional factor than music. With his authored technique, the artist creates a visual portal that takes the viewer into the artist's worldview. Vibration is the result, the deeply intimate feeling that the viewer experiences through emotional co-creation.  

As wrote V. Kandinsky, forming a "psychological reality" and exploring the spiritual in art, "For visual perception, the influence of the color of an object, its shape, and the object itself, regardless of color and shape, is significant. Each of these three elements has its own sound, and the artist is obliged to harmonize them on the basis of the "principle of a relevant touch to the human soul". Without this, there can be no true art..." Responding to contemporary artistic challenges, without focusing solely on the technical aspect of the work and revealing unexpected creative facets of the artistic tree, the author appeals to the most complex matters.

Nazar Symotiuk's work not only resonates in the cultural and artistic space of Ukraine, but also makes every viewer accompany in tune.

"Portals" is a series about boundaries and passage. In each work, there is a presence of the invisible, calling to pass through the form to a deeper perception.

Within Time explores the boundaries of time perception through structure, rhythm, and repetition.

Each work captures a moment that cannot be stopped — not as an event, but as a state. 

This is not an image of time — it is its materialization.

The rhythmic systems that form each composition operate like visual waves: they do not move physically, yet they set the viewer’s gaze in motion. In this process, the viewer becomes part of the work — perception itself activates the sense of duration, transformation, and internal time.

Within Time exists between two conditions:
between a moment and its disappearance,
between form and its dissolution,
between the present and what has already become past.

These works are not about chronology —
but about how time is experienced from within.
