Hanna Sydorenko. Self-portrait in Lviv. Etching. Around 1984–1987
Description of the work:
The graphic self-portrait belongs to the student works of Hanna Sydorenko, created in Lviv against the backdrop of a metal historic fence on Virmenska Street.
The author considers the work iconic for herself. While studying at the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts and creating this portrait during summer practice in Lviv, she did not anticipate that she would eventually move to Lviv permanently. She literally “inscribed” herself into the landscape of Lviv long before moving.
