Irina Howard is a Ukraine-born, New York-based artist who explores the complexity of human life experiences. Her innovative style is inspired by organic forms and textures, which she artistically implements, creating compositions molding a physical form to a conceptual idea. Bridging reality and imagination, she forms a visual metaphor, revealing and interpreting texture in connection to human experiences. Howard studied fine arts and graduated with honors from the City University of New York and Yale Gordon College of Arts and Sciences. She has received several art awards and recognitions, including International Prize Leonardo DaVinci, the Artists Magazine Annual Award 2022, the Oscar of Visual Arts 2022 by Art Tour International Magazine, and the Voices of Tomorrow Art Award by Contemporary Art Curator Magazine. Her work has been widely published worldwide in magazines and art books. Among them are Artistonish Contemporary Art Magazine, Aesthetica Magazine, Art Ideal Magazine, Important World Artists by Worldwide Artbooks, Contemporary Celebrity Masters by Effetto Arte Foundation, and Power of Creativity Art Book by Contemporary Art Curator Magazine. She exhibited throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia.
