Sofiia Kulichkova (Sonjakul)

Frankfurt am Main, Germany •
Artist (Painting, Drawing) •
Born 1989 •
My art is a journey of self-discovery

Born in Rostov-on-Don in 1989, the artist’s journey took a significant turn in 2020, moving away from a background in economics to fully embrace a passion for art. Though from 2008 to 2012 the artist studied economics at Southern State University, the desire for artistic expression was always present. This creative journey began with drawing and illustration, but soon expanded into a much broader exploration. The artist delved into various techniques and mediums, studying oil and acrylic painting, where the diversity of textures and possibilities became an exciting playground. This curiosity led to continual experimentation with different materials, unlocking new potentials with each. Online courses and learning with renowned artists like A. Lavdovskaya, M. Yankovskaya, and B. Breitenstein helped deepen this exploration, allowing the artist to develop a versatile and adaptive approach. Now living and working in Frankfurt, Germany, the artist thrives on the joy of the creative process itself. Working across mixed media and non-traditional tools like bags, napkins, and sponges, the artist enjoys pushing boundaries and discovering new techniques. Large-scale works provide a canvas for this exploration, offering freedom of expression and inviting the artist to experiment with unconventional materials and formats. At the core of the artist’s work is a love for experimentation and a desire to explore the emotional impact of color combinations, texture, and form. Whether painting an apple, an Italian street, or an abstract composition, the goal is to evoke emotion and leave room for the viewer’s own interpretation. The subject itself becomes secondary to the feeling it inspires. Rather than focusing on fine details, the artist captures the essence of the subject, allowing the viewer’s imagination to engage and complete the picture. The space around, the balance between nature and human life, and the interplay of different elements are constant sources of inspiration, reflected in the wide range of techniques used in each piece.
