creates artworks from lines of random scrawl
(b. 1987, Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine)
Lives and works in the suburbs of Kiev.
Tatiana became a scrawlgrapher unexpectedly, even for herself. It all started with a series of creative experiments in 2015. Then, she tried more than 100 different art techniques and created several of her own. Thus was born the author's course "101 ways to create a masterpiece", which Tetiana has been teaching since 2018. It was at this stage that the artist rediscovered scrawlgraphy. Then her first graphic works from random doodles were born. In 2018, almost 50 such artworks were created. The world lockdown of 2020 was a turning point. It was the impetus for a new stage. It`s the stage of immersion in the study of the possibilities of scrawl.
Usually, scrawlgraphy is used only as a way to develop creative thinking or find inspiration. But Tetiana Kramarenko sees real art in ordinary scrawl. Many artists work with doodles, but each of their lines is actually clearly thought out and verified. Tatiana, on the other hand, works with random lines. It's a very gambling type of art, because when creating a doodle blindly, you never know in advance what the image will be. There are a lot of different options hidden in each random line and sometimes it is difficult to choose one.
Since 2023, she has been paying special attention to popularizing the new trend of contemporary art born in Ukraine, "Scrawlgraphy", to the international stage. A team of followers is now forming, who, alongside the founder, will continue developing the "branches" of scrawlgraphy. In April 2025, the first batch of scribbler teachers will be released.
The artist uses scrawlgraphy as a way to show how many different options are hidden in the chaos. This applies to both creativity and life situations.
I am confident that positive and inspiring art will help humanity cope with all problems and cataclysms.
For 2020 by Tatiana:
