ABOUT ME
I'm Viktoriia, the artist behind Branchstone, a mixed-media project inspired by natural textures and quiet imperfect details. I work with found materials like wood, moss, and algae to create abstract compositions that preserve the raw beauty of nature.
Originally from Ukraine and now based in California, my work is a personal reflection on change, resilience, and the grounding power of the natural world.
ARTIST STATEMENT
My work explores the emotional connection between natural materials and personal memory. Each piece begins with an organic element — wood, moss, bark, algae — and evolves into an abstract composition.
I aim to create work that invites quiet reflection, offering a sense of grounding and connection to the natural world. Most of my pieces begin with a small moment—something I found on a walk, something I couldn't leave behind.
