ABOUT ME

VICTO

Contemporary Artist | New York, USA

Born in 1990 | Based in New York

VICTO is a self-taught contemporary artist working primarily in oil painting and mixed media. Based in New York, her multidisciplinary practice explores the intersections of human emotion, nature, empathy, and the search for belonging in an increasingly accelerated world.

Moving between figurative narratives, botanical compositions, abstraction, and tactile works, VICTO investigates how art can restore our capacity for attention, tenderness, and meaningful connection. Her visual language combines humor, unexpected narratives, layered surfaces, and sensory experiences, challenging conventional perceptions of everyday life.

Central to her practice is a recurring question: What can art do to make the world a kinder place?

Influenced by philosophical approaches to aesthetics, perception, and the relationship between humans and the natural world, VICTO challenges traditional boundaries between the ordinary and the extraordinary. In her paintings, animals become emotional protagonists, botanical environments transform into protective sanctuaries, and abstract compositions evoke the intimacy of memory, touch, and home.

Her work reflects a personal tension between ambition and stillness. As an artist, mother, and founder of a contemporary art gallery, VICTO navigates the demands of modern life while questioning the culture of constant productivity. Her artistic practice invites viewers to slow down, reconsider the familiar, and rediscover the emotional significance of seemingly simple experiences.

Since 2021, VICTO has developed an international exhibition practice, with presentations during Miami Art Week (2022 and 2024), at Affordable Art Fair (New York, Boston, Houston, and Austin), The Other Art Fair (Los Angeles and New York City), and Edinburgh Art Fair in Scotland.

In 2023, her work was selected for Woman: Balancing Our World, an exhibition at the Museum of Russian Art (MoRA) in New Jersey.

VICTO is a member of Oil Painters of America (OPA) and the Association of Women Art Dealers (AWAD).

In 2022, she founded Artseeker Gallery, a Brooklyn-based contemporary art gallery dedicated to supporting and promoting women artists, with a particular focus on immigrant and Slavic voices. Through her curatorial work, she actively contributes to creating opportunities for emerging and established women artists in the international art market.

In 2025, VICTO published her debut book, You Can Become Anyone You Choose, dedicated to artistic independence and the development of sustainable creative careers.

Having lived in different countries before settling in New York, VICTO brings a personal understanding of displacement, belonging, and the search for home into her artistic practice.

Across her artistic and curatorial work, she continues to explore the transformative potential of art as a space for empathy, reflection, and human connection.

Her work is not about escaping reality, but about rediscovering the beauty, tenderness, and humanity already present within it.
