Olga Sabko

After studying graphic design at the National Technical University of Ukraine, Olga Sabko continued her training at the Beaux-Arts de Paris, where she delved into ceramics, lithography, and linocut.

Olga’s artistic approach revolves around the elusive concept of time and its impermanence. Rather than engaging in philosophical reflections on the nature of time, she explores its tangible traces. Her sculptures attempt to give form to time and its contents, while also expressing her physical and emotional relationship with it.

A key element of Olga’s work is the embrace of uncertainty. Her sculptures evoke perpetual movement, with forms that remain fluid and undefined. They embody a state of constant transformation, representing physical existence in an uncertain space-time. Olga intentionally leaves her sculptures unfinished, raw, and devoid of color, allowing the material itself to speak, free from imposed aesthetic or emotional intentions.

Her creative process emphasizes experimentation and attentiveness to the material. Harmony emerges through poetic accidents that shape her organic forms. This approach extends beyond sculpture to other media, as seen in her lithographic works, where intuition and chance come together to capture the spatio-temporal essence of creation.
