Essay

An artist who conveys images through the synthesis of sounds, telling fantastic stories. The one who erases the boundaries and calls to erase the boundaries of the listener’s perception. Its rhythms and drum parts give an impulse to the movement of the body, and the deep intellectual sounds of synthesizers call to become a part of what is happening and, merging with the flow, be carried away into the world of fantasies. The listener becomes a co-author, his imagination and visual images complete what the music paved the way for. Explore, fantasize, concentrate. What is hidden always becomes visible.

Hi, my name is Natalia and I am planning to go to Berlin.
I am looking for any room or bed for free for 2-3-4 weeks.
I am from Kiev. I have no children and never been married. I won a French Government scholarship in 2006 and lived in Paris. Also I won some other awards. After graduation from the Art Academy (Graphic Faculty, Book Illustration Studio) I worked in advertising field as a graphic designer and, at the same time, as an art teacher.
I am planning to go to Berlin very soon. Just before the war I worked as an art instructor conducting individual art lessons at students” homes and also I taught online with Skype. I have excellent communication skills. I developed the programs for individual art lessons that included history of art, birds and flowers drawing, and other themes.
People of different professions took my lessons to learn about visual arts, styles and to prepare themselves to travel. At my lessons people shared their experience of travelling, visiting museums, and reading great artists” memoirs with me .
My art lessons are very interesting. For example, my programs for those who studied art for self- development “How Can We See Nature through the Eyes of an Artist?” and “Drawing for Those Who Travel” enjoyed particular popularity among my students.
If you (or some one) accept me at your home, I can teach you and your children drawing and painting.
I like sewing and designing my own clothes and can teach you sewing, fashion illustration, and how to choose fabric for sewing.
I am looking for new friends who love art and literature. I can show you museums in Berlin and tell about paintings that we will see there.
If you know some people, who can help me or may be interested in hosting me, please send me a PM. What if you have a friend art lover, or an amateur painter interested to help a Ukrainian artist?
Thank you in advance. Waiting for your reply. Natalia
