The article examines the shaping of artistic and aesthetic symbolism concepts of Olexander Oles in the context of native traditions, the transformation of mythological images and stories in the artistic heritage of the artist (figurative, topical, genre).
The influence of ancient and biblical images integration is defined, in a kind of symbolic space of the modernists’ poetry, showing a reflection of the myth and religion mutuality. Interpreting mythological material according to his philosophical foundations, the artist became the singer of the bonded region revival, of the man and his free native word.
The shape of Prometheus has been analyzed. It is filled with symbolic nature, while gaining a national flavor in accordance with the mentality of the Ukrainian people, namely the willingness to sacrifice and a high level of humanism.
