Me Behind The Art
I understand the force of the human spirit, and recognize that each individual has the power to influence the world for the better.
When I was just 17 years old, I lost my mother and gathered the courage to fly alone to a foreign country. After departing from my homeland Ukraine, I was essentially in survival mode for several years to forge my own life. These times made it necessary to be a strong, independent, and brave woman in order to face the challenges put in front of me.
Now, after cultivating a life of my choosing, I have been able to explore my creativity to the fullest. Chasing what I wanted took courage and I happily enjoy the labor of being a professional artist. Everybody has a voice, but very few have the means to express it. For me, art is an instrument that inspires people and offers them a chance to sound their voice!
Art shouldn’t necessarily be charming to influence change in the world. Instead, art should evoke different emotions in each individual who looks at it and ultimately guide them to their purpose.
