Sofia Shilova

Sofia Shilova

Sofia Shilova is a Ukrainian artist based in Eindhoven. She has been involved in art since childhood, studying graphic design and fine arts, but her artistic identity was shaped most by her move to the Netherlands during the war. Working in an expressionist style, she explores emotions—tension, fear, strength, and vulnerability—and draws inspiration from people and life’s contrasts. Recently, she has also begun combining painting with movement and sound in performance work. For Sofia, art is a way to process reality and share it with others.
