Yulia Becker
About Yulia Becker (Onipchenko)
Yulia was born in Wyborg, Russia, in 1983. She graduated in 2006 from the Department of Architecture and Urban Planning at Saint-Petersburg State University of Architecture and Construction in Russia. In addition to architectural graphics, she has taken classes in pastel painting and watercolour methods.
In 2006, she graduated from the State Architectural University of Hannover, Germany (Leibniz Universität Hannover, LUH), Department of Architecture and Landscape. Since then, she has launched a successful artistic career.
She has lived and worked in Vienna, Austria, since 2008 in the fields of architecture and design. The Austrian Professional Union of Artists welcomed Yulia as a member in 2017. In the same year, she established her own studio, “KreativRaum,” a creative place.
The famous quote by F. Dostoevsky “Beauty will save the world” is an important source of inspiration for me, this is the message I try to embody and convey in my paintings. My paintings are like waiting for a first date! with a sense of slight trepidation from the meeting, “butterflies in the stomach”, positive and, at the same time, holding a lot of unsolved mysteries.

Albana Ejupi
About Albana Ejupi
Welcome to the online gallery of Albana Ejupi, a painter who explores the relationship between the body and the mind through the use of strong and contrasting colors, layers of material, and voluminous figures. Albana Ejupi questions what it means to be human and investigates spiritual and social aspects of human nature through the use of the age-old technique of painting.
By using sand from Kosovo in their work, Albana Ejupi feels that part of their heritage materializes in their paintings. They prefer to work with older people who are shaped and marked by life, depicting bodies in different positions that reflect the diversity of human relations.
Through their paintings, Albana Ejupi hopes to create more universal images of individuals that others can identify with. They often use monochromatic or undefined backgrounds with few colors to draw focus to the foreground, where the subject of the painting is depicted in a comfortable state.
Some of Albana Ejupi’s paintings represent the act of sex, evoking eroticism, love, and harmony between two or more bodies. They also explore the bond between animals and humans, inspired by the long lockdown that forced us to isolate ourselves from our social contacts.
In addition to exploring the relationship between the body and the mind, Albana Ejupi also creates portraiture of older people, capturing the essence of their character, experiences, memories, and thoughts through the use of strong and contrasting colors.
Thank you for visiting Albana Ejupi’s online gallery. We hope you enjoy their work as much as we do.
