ART AS A PRAYER FOR OUR PLANET

Creating Harmony through Art

Ekaterina Sky is an international artist, currently based in the United States. Her practice as a visual artist spans various mediums, acrylic, watercolor, drawing, performance art, and a medium only she has access to… 

Ekaterina’s acrylic art series, Animalize, painted on both canvas and walls internationally, has been pivotal in establishing her as an emerging artist since its inception in 2016.

Among her renowned works within the international muralist community are notable projects such as her mural in Auroville, Tamil Nadu, India in 2019, Movement: Paint City Peaceful – Mural for Black Lives Matter in Los Angeles, CA in 2020, and the Water Temple at Burning Man in Black Rock City, USA in 2021. These projects have not only showcased her artistic talents but also her commitment to social and environmental causes.

In recognition of her contributions to art and advocacy, Ekaterina received the Andrew Gemant Award from Animals Asia in 2021. Her impactful work has also been featured in prominent publications, including Ebby Magazine USA in 2023 and The Topanga Times in 2024, where her projects and community initiatives in Borneo, Indonesia, and her interactive art project titled At The Core We Are One were highlighted.

Looking ahead, Ekaterina is poised for a solo exhibition and the development of a documentary series focused on vanishing ecosystems. This upcoming work underscores her dedication to using art as a powerful medium for raising environmental awareness and fostering positive social change.

Ekaterina Sky’s multifaceted artistic journey continues to inspire and engage audiences worldwide, emphasizing the interconnectedness of all life and the urgent need to protect our planet’s diverse ecosystems.

 

Impact Art

My purpose as an artist is to create works that explore the profound connections between wildlife, humanity, and nature, serving as visual prayers for the Earth to inspire reflection and action. 
 
Through diverse practices like painting, mural creation, and performance art, I aim to highlight the beauty of the natural world and emphasize the need for environmental stewardship and harmony.
