"If tomorrow never comes - be with me, let’s love each other.
Nowadays is the time for being especially careful with each other. We all walk naked, all the layers are erased, it’s harder to listen, it’s harder to be heard, it’s almost impossible to be understood. It is the time for silent embraces. What to say? Give me the warmest hug, like if it would be illegal tomorrow.
I am a multimedia artist with Jewish, German, Ukrainian and Russian roots. I have two wars from both sides in my blood, like there are united enemies inside of me.
When everything is on the way to be destroyed, there is no need to help with destruction. There is the need for LOVE. The closer the Apocalypse is, the stronger the embraces should be.

I turn around and feel the level of pain and the strength of aggression. It is much easier to hate each other rather than to try to keep the humaneness. It is understandable: we live in the terrifying times, and it drives everyone crazy. And I am so, so sorry for that. But to continue fighting not on the battlefield is a completely wrong way, to me. I want to maintain the minimal, affordable peace on the level of simple human communication. I want to remind - humaneness has no nationality. I want to remind - how it can be when your love is unconditional. I want to wake up some forgotten feelings, to remind about the childhood, fragility, dreams with no borders and feeling that everything is in the future, everything is still possible.
I close my eyes and dream about the time, when we still can be together, my love. The life is so fast and so uncontrollable. The stars are falling somewhere every day, I wish you wake me up when everything is good again."
