Oksana Fursovych

Oksana Fursovych came to England in 2022 to escape the war in Ukraine.   Since then she has been living in Cheltenham and working by day in a beauty salon.   But in the evening she takes out her paints and brushes.   She has been keen on art since she was a child.

This is what she says about her art:

My art is as diverse as I am. My pictures are a reflection of my mood, feelings and memories. 

The main material which is used for my pictures is acrylic, but sometimes I treat myself to use oil paints. 

I love to fill my pictures up with special meaning, because when they go on the wall, they become alive and bring a special atmosphere to our homes. 

I did not stop there and started drawing on clothing, which looks elegant and full of colour. The world becomes brighter when pictures are full of charisma and style and you are able to take it with you wherever you go.

Ruslan Ganushchak

Filmmaker, journalist, and photographer Ruslan Ganushchak was born in the picturesque Carpathian city of Ivano-Frankivsk. His deep love for his country and its people was reflected in the illuminating documentaries and TV series he created while traveling over the years. Ruslan participated in numerous film festivals as a director, videographer, and photographer, with his work gaining recognition both in Ukraine and abroad, including in Poland, Germany, and the United States.

From the first days of the invasion, Ruslan was on the front lines, capturing the human stories behind the war. With the launch of the Kharkiv counteroffensive, he made the courageous decision to swap his camera for a military uniform, joining the 92nd Brigade of the Ukrainian Army. His battalion took part in the liberation of the Kharkiv and Kherson regions and crossed into Russia’s Kursk region.



But on January 12, 2025, Ruslan did not return from the front line.
