About Us

Welcome to Bolonenkov Art.

I create art as a space to feel, remember, and reconnect.

My work is born from lived experience — from inner landscapes shaped by memory, healing, dream imagery, and personal transformation. Each piece offers a glimpse into my inner world, not as a story to explain, but as a feeling to meet.

I see art as a bridge between the visible and the unseen - where emotion, intuition, and presence take form through color, movement, and symbol.

Bolonenkov Art was established in 2009, honoring my father, Nikolai Bolonenkov — an artist whose presence I continue to feel through creativity and lineage. Carrying my maiden name is a way of staying connected to that creative thread while shaping my own voice as an artist.

Over the years, my practice has evolved alongside my personal healing journey and professional work as a trauma-informed practitioner supporting emotional integration and resilience. My understanding of the nervous system, emotional integration, and inner resilience deeply informs how I create. Rather than illustrating pain, my work holds space for transformation — acknowledging the full spectrum of the human experience: grief and hope, uncertainty and strength, loss and renewal.

Dream visions, intuitive impressions, and moments of deep presence often guide my process. I don’t aim to provide answers, but to create visual spaces where others may recognize something of themselves — a memory, a feeling, a quiet truth waiting to be acknowledged.

My intention is simple and sincere: to encourage authentic self-expression, honor our shared humanity, and remind each viewer of the quiet power and light that already lives within them.
