Decorative compositions
Декоративні композиції
A group of Panchenko's brightly keyed decorative compositions — birds, flowers and interlaced plant forms in flat orange, red, green and black — in which Ukrainian folk ornament is pushed towards near-abstraction. No individual titles or dates are recorded in the sources consulted, so this entry describes the group as exhibited.
Related Works
Textile appliqués
Panchenko's fabric appliqués, the medium most associated with her: cut and layered cloth arranged into stylised birds, flowers and figures in red, black and ochre. The 2008 jubilee exhibition at the National Museum of Ukrainian Literature showed appliqués alongside paintings and graphics; Yevhen Sverstiuk said of that showing that the works "clearly bear the mark of genius".
Clothing designs and costumes
Panchenko's work as an artist-designer at the Project-Design Technology Institute and the Republican House of Models: garment drawings, headwear studies, finished costumes and embroidery samples in which Ukrainian ornament is carried into modern dress. Individual models are not separately titled in the sources consulted.
Carpathian Melodies (Carpathian studies)
A series of Carpathian studies in watercolour and gouache, using both traditional and wet, washed-out technique: Hutsul men and women in embroidered coats and headscarves, interiors with pottery, and green mountain fields. Shown by the Museum of the Sixtiers as «Карпатські мелодії»; no individual sheet titles or dates are recorded in the sources consulted.
