Sviatlana Petushkova - Cherry Flavor

"Cherry Flavor" by contemporary artist Sviatlana Petushkova is a vibrant, highly sensual, and iconic pop-art composition created in 2021. Executed in acrylic on canvas, this large-scale artwork (80 x 80 cm) is a playful and passionate exploration of physical intimacy, romance, and body positivity.

The painting depicts two intertwined figures in a tender, tactile embrace. The striking contrast between the electric pink body, warm natural skin tones, and deep graphic lines creates an intense atmosphere of passion and warmth. A charming, repeating pattern of ripe red cherries in the background infuses the composition with a sense of playful sweetness, youthful desire, and pop-art energy.

This artwork carries an impressive provenance and exhibition history:
2022: Featured in a solo exhibition at GODŌ Gallery (Vilnius, Lithuania).
2023: Exhibited at the prestigious Art Brussels art fair (Brussels, Belgium).
