Abstract

The article highlights Lyudmila Zhogol's creative contribution to the implementation of national motifs in interior design. Emphasis is placed on the characteristic features of her style and the features of using elements of folk culture. The
article is a tribute to the outstanding craftswoman of artistic textiles and academician of the Ukrainian Academy of Architecture – Ludmila Zhogol. The creative path of the artist, her significant contribution to the development of Ukrainian art
and design will be explored. It was highlighted that Ludmila Zhogol became a bright representative of modern Ukrainian design, emphasizing the importance of national traditions in modern art. The School of Ukrainian Design represents a unique combination of historical artistic heritage and innovative approaches of modern artists, as reflected in the work of Lyudmila Zhogol. Her tapestries reveal to the viewer an enchanted fantasy world, which is saturated with both folklore motifs and harmonious artistic images. It was determined that the craftswoman's works demonstrate deep talent, knowledge, a sense of style, and the ability to synthesize national heritage and universal human values in her narrative and decorative tapestries. They are modern in nature, but at the same time are inextricably linked with the traditions of both decorative and monumental art embodied in living interiors. The main feature of their use is their ability to decorate public spaces, performing aesthetic and educational roles. Tapestry, as an important element of monumental and decorative art, required a refresh in creative expression, a new language and a rethinking. It was determined that Ludmila Zhogol's interior tapestries in the «montflor» style met modern aesthetic demands, ensuring harmony with modern sensibilities and rejecting the strict socialist context. The artist's tapestries are a reflection of her spiritual quest, her sincere love for nature and her deep understanding of the beauty of the surrounding world. Her works seem to have escaped from time and historical circumstances. The magical world of floral tapestries reveals the lyrics of nature. Through her works, Lyudmila Zhogol conveys the richness and generosity of Ukrainian nature, reflecting her boundless passion for her native land.
