DESCRIPTION
Two faces, one kiss , dissolved into radiant fragments.
 
A streak of color cuts through the center , a flash technique of shimmering rainbow tones flowing like a current of light across the lovers’ skin. These colors symbolize more than just light: they speak of diversity, of cultural boundaries dissolving in the moment of a kiss.
 
This painting is a tribute to connection – between two people, two worlds. It speaks of love not as a concept, but as an immediate experience that transcends difference and transforms it into color.
 
BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST
Nadiya Spiller (b. 1979, Donetsk, Ukraine) is a Berlin-based artist and ophthalmologist whose work bridges the precision of science with the expressive freedom of visual art.
 
Originally trained in medicine, Spiller graduated in Ophthalmology from TU Dresden and earned her Doctoral Degree from Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin.
Alongside a distinguished medical career, she discovered her passion for painting in 2021, developing a unique pixel-texture technique that merges meticulous structure with vibrant emotion , a reflection of her dual background in art and science.
 
Her artistic journey began in Cairo, where she lived from 2021 to 2024, exhibiting in several solo and group shows including “Timeless Pixels” (Craftastic, 2022), “Continuum VI” (Al Mashrabia Art Gallery, 2023), and “Art as a Weapon” (German Embassy, 2024). Her works explore the interplay between order and chaos, light and emotion, revealing a deep fascination with perception and detail.
 
Since 2024, Spiller has been based in Berlin, continuing her artistic and medical practice. She is fluent in German, English, Ukrainian, and Russian.
