In addition to painting, she creates graphics and bas-reliefs. Kateryna Shadrina's works are in private collections in Ukraine, Russia, France, Italy, Australia, Canada, USA and the Netherlands."I came to icon painting consciously. The impetus for this was the theoretical basis. I wanted to make art that makes sense, and the language of icon painting is meaningful and comprehensive. Some say that the icon is a spatial boundary between the visible and invisible world - in that case, the study of sacred art is not just exciting but also responsible", said Kateryna.
