Anastasiia Podervianska

Anastasiia Podervianska (b. 1978) is a painter and decorative textile artist. She is the daughter of L. Podervianskyi and S. Lopukhova, granddaughter of S. Podervianskyi and L. Milyaieva, as well as Oleksandr and Nadiia Lopukhov, and great-granddaughter of S. Milyaiev.

Laureate of the 5th (2016) and 6th (2021) All-Ukrainian Textile Triennials (both — Kyiv); 3rd place at the 8th International Textile Biennale (Madrid, 2019); 2nd prize at the 3rd All-Ukrainian Biennale of Tempera Painting (Kyiv, 2023). Member of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine (since 2002).

She graduated from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (Kyiv, 2002; class of M. A. Storozhenko).

Podervianska works in various techniques in the fields of painting, textile art, textile sculpture, and embroidery, breaking stereotypes that perceive these media as traditional female handicrafts, instead using fabric and embroidery as a language of contemporary art. Her complex and multilayered visual compositions are created through the combination of multiple techniques. Her works include elements of collage, inserts of brocade fabric, and more.

She has participated in national and international art exhibitions since 1995. Some of her works are held in the National Museum "Kyiv Art Gallery," the Museum of the History of Kyiv, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Ukraine (all in Kyiv), the Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art (Lutsk), and the Khmelnytskyi Art Museum.
