Sonia Delaunay, born in 1885 in Ukraine, was a pioneering figure in 20th-century modernism known for her innovative contributions to various art forms, including painting, textiles, and fashion. Together with her husband Robert, she developed the theory of Simultanism, which emphasized color’s expressive potential. Delaunay’s multidisciplinary approach integrated art into everyday life, establishing her lasting legacy in breaking down the boundaries between fine and applied arts.
