Artist: Olga Yukhno | Location: Columbia, SC
Columbia, SC
Olga Yukhno is an artist originally from Pyatigorsk, Russia. Inspired by the
culture of her home country, she started by working with stained glass and
enameling, before moving to the US in 2008 where she fell in love with
ceramics. It allowed her to experiment and fuse old-world artistry with her skills
across a wide variety of art forms to create unique mixed media pieces. Olga
has traveled to over 40 countries and visited museums ranging from the world
famous Louvre, to the smallest unnamed art displays in towns and villages few
outsiders have ever seen. It is in these travels she gets the most inspiration,
drawing on the uniqueness and culture of every new place, she finds ways to
incorporate those cultural nuances into each new piece she makes. She loves juxtaposition in her art, old and new, lustrous and weathered, and it’s in these contrasts she finds beauty.
