PROJECT
PEACE.FREINDSHIP.BUBBLE GUM. The project idea was taken from the cult of gum in the USSR. At that time it was almost unattainable object of luxury. Bubble gum was chewing several time and it was removed from the mouth and left for the next day. This was taken for weeks, even though that had no taste. When you throw away gum it was considered like almost blasphemy. For exotic color it was lowered into the solution of brilliant green or chewing with carrots. In 1975, was the youthful match CSKA in Soviet Union.Canadian fans in the crowd threw a pack of bubble gum in soviet fans and crush began. In the struggle for "bubble-rubber" were killed 20 people. In the late 1970s the Soviet Union began production own bubble gums. But they did not go to any comparison with imported bubble gums. In this regard, has become a popular phrase "Peace. Friendship. Bubble gum ". Even for today history facts of bubble gum are shoked. Technical specifications: installation of knitted sculptures, and painting (oil,canvas).

PROJECT
THE THIRD DAY No matter how many talking about utopian "equality of sexes" - and it always implies double standards offered to women by society and implies the existence of "moral mutants" that courageous in situations of social relationships, and feminine in private life - there is a stable the idea of which is difficult to get rid of: the woman in the arts will say "of his, about women." Often, the way it is: a woman still translates not intellectual, but subtle sensory-emotional level. It is the bearer of a "feminist program" - an expression we take in quotes because the term "feminism" is meant not so much a conscious ideological approach, but a way of soft, environmentally harmless interaction with the world, not its analytical "dismemberment", but gentle contact ... Unlike men seeking evidence of scientific theory, a woman prefers to believe in the beautiful fairy tale. Such as: creationism, creation divine will. Her imagination absorbs biogenesis not without evolution of RNA molecules, DNA, but phased jewelry work creativity. If you let yourself be expressed fashioned pathoslanguage inheritance demiurgic this very spark of the divine mission and the meaning of life is the artist. Repopulating the planet (the third day of his life God created plants), girls with green yarn vyv'yazuyut trees resemble conventional caps - three-dimensional logo "cap", creating a kind of artificial forest, more precisely, for elegance, planting planet orderly as scheduled park. Paintings on the walls resembles kaleidoscopic whirl of green monads. The process of creation, I suppose, proceeded Jolly: God shook the graeen glass - nd has developed a pattern, again shook - and is a completely different picture ...

HINT
The feeling of anxiety is not controlling. It arises "not asking" permission in human mind. Subconscious gives a signal -It's
feelings and experiences of the unknown (whatever occurs through a dream or in real life). There are emothions that are not possible to maintain, and people want to get rid of them by hidden them. The project "HINT" reveals the process in the form of fire, which a person seeks to reject from itself and bury it in the snow. But as stated, we are unable to manage these emotions in our works it symbolizes fire, which in the end, began to burn again. Only when we know the cause of the alarm, will release this feeling, regardless of the result is positive or negative.

NEW YEAR PARTY
ART-project of artist Olesia Sekeresh
Мт 5:13
The main idea of project reflect the text of Bible "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men."(Matthew 5:13) However, the concept is not religious in nature, but it is more about existentialism. Visual representation of salt is a fundamental metaphor of the word existence, what include the essentially aim of life, and what that mean to be a human. A person is able to think and aware the entity and must take responsibility for it, if he wants to be himself.
The main idea of project "Matthew 5:13" is that it has a special comparative symbolic parallel of nature of the man with salt, their functionalism and features. Without salt can't live any living organism. The importance of this mineral was prized for centuries. Among the ancient Hebrews used salt to preserve food as a condiment and in all animal sacrifices. Salt is a vital component which help to improve the taste of food. Food without salt loses its meaning. A taste of life are: pain, development, motivation, pleasure, desire, freedom... The metaphor of salt means that you should not remove ourselves from the world, but take part in it. And if all that deprive of human, pick up his main spiritual functional things, will he be himself needed?
