“The name of the exhibition“ Living Life ”we came up with the guest of honor of the exhibition, and my personal wonderful friend Irina Evgenievna Yasina.

We are united by a common diagnosis, because of which we are in wheelchairs, and the phrase “Living Life” is perceived in a very special way, which we would like to share with every spectator at the exhibition - the value of every day lived and the joy of the opportunity to live, to see, feel, create and share this attitude with the outside world. Batik attracts me, first of all, with an unpredictable result, as well as the ability to use bright pure colors. The result for me is always unexpected. It’s difficult to predict what kind of picture will be in the end, and it’s always intriguing, captivating me ”- Irina Bogomolova.
