BIO
Iryna Kabysh is a multitool artist from Kyiv, Ukraine. Based in Greece from 2025
The interseсtion of art and engineering is the central point of her artistic interests. The nature of light of all kinds is another big thing that drives Iryna's creative process.
As a painter, interior light inventor and model, Iryna was always close to visual arts and photography. Still, it was the covid quarantine that finally brought a camera into her hands. She started working on personal art projects after graduating from Istituto Marangoni (Milano) and Kyiv Photography School and MYPH (Mykolayiv Young Photography School).
Iryna has been involved in exhibitions across Ukraine, the USA, France, Denmark, Georgia, the United Kingdom, Norway, Іtaly, German, Hungary, Austria.
