Cherkasy National University named after Bohdan Khmelnytsky – Cherkasy, Ukraine – 2017


‘Philosophy of Love’- creative meeting, ChNU.  03.23.2017

On March 23, 2017 at 1 pm (room 503), a personal exhibition and a creative meeting with Cherkasy graphic artist Evgenia Vasilchenko took place.

The author presented her work as a result of a worldview search for the meaning of life and the place of love in it. Evgenia answered students' questions about the sources of images of their paintings, the secrets of creative inspiration, motivation for artistic activity and understanding of human destiny.

In the context of the topic, the results of the social experiment "Model of happiness without love" (Oksana Pushonkova, Zoya Shevchenko) were presented.

Cherkasy bards Taras Ulitko and Oleksandr Novachenko (Cherkasy Palace of Youth, bard administrator "OPORKA") presented their original songs to the audience.

Kateryna Grabareva, the author of the translation of the lines of Evgenia Vasilchenko accompanying her paintings, recited new poems by Evgenia, and also turned to the poetry of Serhiy Zhadan and Osip Mandelstam.

Love goes through everyone's life, but the hardest thing is to talk about it. Perhaps the language of images is more accessible, they mediate thoughts and themselves are a form of thought… Proof of this were the visual, poetic and musical components of the project.

However, Svitlana Zaitseva, Oleg Polikhov, Anton Dementiev created an atmosphere for discussing the philosophical aspect of the concept of love, tried to define and comprehend as a phenomenon of human existence.
