Helena Bunina is a Ukrainian contemporary artist and muralist based in Las Vegas, Nevada. Working across painting, mixed media, and large-scale public art, she explores themes of vulnerability, instinct, identity, memory, and emotional transformation.

Rooted in neo-pop aesthetics and symbolic storytelling, Helena work combines expressive textures, bold color, and layered imagery to create emotionally charged narratives. Her paintings often feature recurring symbols, human figures, animals, and surreal characters that reflect the complexity of inner emotional life and the tension between innocence, strength, and personal growth.

Alongside her studio practice, Bunina has completed public and private mural commissions in Chicago, creating large-scale works for restaurants, commercial spaces, and private collectors. Her work has been exhibited internationally in the United States, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Arab Emirates.

Rather than illustrating stories, Bunina creates spaces where viewers recognize their own emotions. Her work transforms everyday experiences into visual metaphors that invite reflection, empathy, and dialogue.

Currently based in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
