"Shards of Glass in Memory" is a compelling series of paintings by Tetiana Maslyk, exploring the intricate and often tumultuous nature of memory and experience. Each piece in this series is a vivid representation of how memories, much like shards of broken glass, can reflect light in myriad directions, revealing different facets of our past.
The use of deep blues and purples conveys depth and introspection, symbolizing the profound and sometimes dark corners of our memories.
Bright yellows and golds introduce warmth and light, representing moments of joy and clarity that pierce through the shadows.
Bold reds and oranges evoke intense emotions and pivotal experiences, capturing the passion and energy that certain memories hold.
White highlights add a sense of purity and hope, suggesting moments of revelation and understanding.
The abstract, fragmented forms within the paintings mirror the fragmented nature of memory. Just as broken glass scatters into numerous pieces, our memories often exist in disjointed, non-linear fragments.
The interplay of sharp lines and soft curves within the compositions reflects the duality of memory—its ability to be both sharp and painful, yet also soft and comforting.
The textural elements and dynamic brushstrokes bring a sense of movement and energy to the paintings. This movement represents the fluid and ever-changing nature of memory, as it is constantly being reshaped by time and new experiences.
The layering of paint creates a tactile quality, inviting viewers to engage not just visually, but also to imagine the physical presence of these memories.
The depiction of light and glare within the broken glass fragments symbolizes moments of clarity and insight. Just as sunlight refracts through glass, casting beautiful patterns of light, our memories can reveal unexpected beauty and wisdom.

"Shards of Glass in Memory" is a poignant exploration of how our past shapes our present. The series invites viewers to reflect on their own experiences, recognizing the beauty in the broken and the light within the shadows. Through her masterful use of color, form, and texture, Tetiana Maslyk captures the essence of memory—its complexity, its pain, and its undeniable beauty.
