ARTIST IN FOCUS
MARYNA OVERCHUK
Maryna Overchuk turns fluid human motion into visual poetry — subtle, sensual, and full of grace, revealing the elegance of dance with a softness and sensitivity that almost feels weightless.
Ukrainian photographer Maryna Overchuk combines technical precision with a finely tuned sensitivity to atmosphere, composition, and emotion. With roots in drawing, she developed a deep understanding of light, form, and structure—foundations that continue to shape her photographic signature.
At the heart of her work is the human figure: portrayed in stillness or in motion. Yet Overchuk seeks not the image, but the essence—emotion, presence, and grace. Her photographs do not freeze a moment; they make the fleeting palpable—through a visual language that is not just seen, but felt.
Time spent abroad, including in Thailand and Indonesia, expanded her perspective. Her approach is open, focused, and precise—a sensibility that has earned her international recognition, including honors from the Paris, Tokyo, and Budapest Photo Awards. Her ethereal images speak softly—but resonate deeply.
