my philosophy

Hello,
I'm glad you are here🌻

My name is Pachiranna
I am a Ukrainian contemporary artist, photographer, and poet based in NSW.

My love for art and nature has been with me for as long as I can remember.
My warmest childhood memories are from the countryside: flowers, trees, animals around, the scent of herbs my grandmother dried, and the damp smell of the root cellar. There, surrounded by nature and living beings, I felt truly at home.  Ever since, the magic of nature has been my greatest muse.

I believe that we are all one — there is something profound in this realization. To see myself as no more and no less than a tree or a bird brings a quiet sense of truth and belonging.

When I sit beneath a tree in the park, listening to birds, or wander through the bush, I find myself reflecting on the spiritual and feeling deeply connected to the living world. 🌳
These quiet rituals have become a source of inspiration for me.

Sometimes, I spontaneously buy a new potted plant and spend the whole day walking around the city with it, talking to it like a friend. 🪴
Caring for living things and watching them grow and bloom brings me immense joy — it renews my faith in life.

I’ve discovered that when philosophy and psychology meet faith, life gains a deeper and more meaningful dimension.

Among the thinkers who inspire me are Plato, whose belief that virtue is inseparable from a meaningful life resonates deeply with me, and Carl Jung, who taught that many of the answers we seek can be found within ourselves. Through self-reflection, embracing both light and shadow, and staying connected to nature, I seek to live with kindness, authenticity, and wonder.

When I just began studying psychology, I suddenly started to notice things in my abstract work I hadn’t seen before: faces, figures, eyes.
I realized the colours I chose reflected my emotions and inner state.
That was a revelation. That was the moment I truly felt like an artist.

Now I know:
Every brushstroke — a part of artist deep truth 🌿
I believe that when you pick up a brush without any intention, you end up painting your soul — your mood, your heart, your true self.

My work could be described as intuitive symbolic expressionism, emotional surrealism rooted in nature, or psychological naïve art. Those styles allow me to translate raw feelings and subconscious memories into colour, gesture, and form.
Through photography, painting, and poetry, I explore my connection with life, nature, and emotions.

I have a small studio in Parramatta, close to the park, where I can stay connected to nature.
Rainbow lorikeets visit me almost every day for grapes, and possums often come to the tree outside my window.
It is a happy place — a little sanctuary where I feel close to Australian wildlife and to life itself. 🌿

I believe that kindness and sincerity have the power to heal the world. 🙏🏼

May your soul remain open to wonder, to the new, and to the unknown. 💚
I hope this little space brings peace to your heart and reminds you of the beauty that surrounds us. 🌼
