Mosaic Wind

Mosaic Wind is a wall mosaic made from colored tile pieces depicting geometric patterns and natural elements. The composition covers a large surface and demonstrates the craftsmanship of mosaic-making techniques from the Soviet period.

This artwork was created during the Soviet period by artists Alla Horska, Viktor Zaretsky, and Boris Plaksiy. It reflects the artistic movements that were prevalent in mid-20th century Ukraine.

This work shows how Soviet artists filled public spaces in Kyiv with colored imagery for everyday viewers. The combination of natural forms and geometric shapes reflects how artists of that era thought about modern design and public expression.

The mosaic is located at a public site in Kyiv and remains accessible throughout the year for visitors. Standing directly in front allows you to see the colored tiles and patterns most clearly.

Artist Alla Horska was a pioneer of mosaic art in Ukraine and shaped the Soviet public art scene. Her work stood out for balancing modern and traditional elements in ways that were unusual for projects of that time.
