Lucy Evans (b. 1995) was born in Kyiv, Ukraine. She has been drawing since childhood.
In 2019, she graduated from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (NAFAA) in Kyiv, with a Master’s degree in easel painting. After Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the artist moved to France, where she joined the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris (2022–present). Her inspiration comes from everyday life and from nature.
Artist Statement:
“For me, art is a quest — a form of inner freedom. It is a way to engage in a sincere dialogue with the world while exploring what often remains invisible: vulnerability, resilience, and the quiet strength that emerges in moments of loss or transformation. In my work, I aspire to convey the inner strength of a person — this ability to transform wounds into wisdom while preserving tenderness and beauty. My portraits are psychological spaces: they go beyond the mere representation of faces and become places where memory, emotion, and the unconscious intersect. My art draws on art history and the old masters, which I reinterpret through a contemporary and subtle language. These echoes of the past provide a means of exploring timeless human states through a modern perspective. I see art as a constant process of discovery — of oneself and of the world. It allows us to recognize fragility, to welcome it, and to extract from it a renewed strength.”
