UKRAINIAN—BORN ARTIST  
CURRENTLY BASED IN PORTLAND, OREGON   

KOBYLIANSKI’S WORK UNFOLDS THROUGH A SYNTHESIS OF PIGMENTS,
MINERAL SLURRIES AND RAW FABRIC. HIS TACTILE, INTUITIVE PROCESS SHAPES  
COMPOSITIONS DEFINED BY GESTURE AND MATERIAL RESPONSE. EXPRESSED  
THROUGH FADING PIGMENTS, MUTED SURFACES AND BLANK SPACES, HIS WORK   
SHIFTS BETWEEN PRESENCE AND DISAPPEARANCE, REFLECTING ON  
MEMORY, INCOMPLETENESS, AND THE IMPERMANENCE OF PERCEPTION.
