"On average, we spend a third of our lives in sleep. Sometimes it is difficult for a person to distinguish a dream from reality, and sometimes we realize that we are sleeping. It is a hybrid state of consciousness.” - says Anastasia about the collection.

The project "Realized Dreams" will reveal the knowledge of two worlds - the authentic and the world of limitless imagination, the world of whimsical surrealism and, understandable to everyone, the art of realism. The colors in the paintings enhance the feeling of night magic, immerse the viewer in the plot, encouraging them to touch the immeasurable.

“Flowers are the personification of youth, beauty and pleasure, love and joy, but when they wither and die, they can symbolize our weakness and rapid transition from life to death or even religious feelings. This bouquet of emotions and beliefs inside us, which are not always positive, makes us truly alive," the artist says about the meaning of her favorite work "The Flower Philosophy".

The purpose of the fund "Children of Heroes" is the provision of long-term assistance to children who have lost one or both parents as a result of the full-scale war in Ukraine. The exhibition will last until May 28.
