The pandemic gave me more free time for creating paintings, but I started facing economic problems, because left my job and had to live on social payments only. Most of my relatives and me recovered from COVID, but it’s hard to see how people are suffering from it.
Most people in Ukraine left their jobs, nothing is left but eating rice or buckwheat and being lonely. Personally, I created for myself “Rice meditation”. Each day that I did my meditation I felt in the cup with one rice grain. During some time, the cup is filled with rice. There is a deep sense in practicing this meditation, you can discipline yourself and check how many rice is in your cup.
-The only possible way of meeting new person is to see their eyes. Eyes contact become the one possible way of communicating and expressing emotions during lockdown.
-I was inspired by the podcasts that I have listened frequently, everyone around was talking about saving other people life, but simple wearing a mask. So, the girls are wearing them. They don’t have eyes, because they don’t want to see all this death’s that COVID brought…. or they just don’t have more tears to cry about all the damage the virus brought ((((
