NEW SERIES is inspired by a process of detachment from the homeland. I left Ukraine two years ago now. And throughout this time I was observing the changes I was facing. These includes the personal attitude towards patriotism and the phenomenon of friendship in spite of distance. Immigration also influenced my overall view-point on the choice of being an artist and staying true to your statement. I also explored the trance-continental dialog one faces through a change of geographical location and the access to the social media that keeps you up to date with the lives that used to surround oneself. Mixed fillings caused the dream-like mixture of memories combined with current political and cultural events that troubled the world in 2015-16.
