Have any unexpected benefits come out
of this situation for you?
As in everything, in this situation,
there are positive aspects. I have the
opportunity to take a break from social
interactions, from constant fuss and rush
and everything around has slowed down.
Now I understand exactly what I want
to do and how to achieve this. I began to
call my relatives and friends much more
often, began to learn how to cook and
pay more attention to the development
of creativity. Now I have the opportunity
to develop my blog, participate more
in unpaid projects and replenish the
portfolio with interesting artworks. I
think I’m lucky — in this situation my
office work allows me to focus on the
development of drawing skills and
the search for projects. The world is
now a little frozen, and I have time and
resources to sort out all the materials for
the projects, draw for myself, hold a competition for free drawings,
organize the portfolio and understand for myself in which creative
direction I should go next.
What do you wish for the future?
Despite all the bad that the virus brought us, the world began to change
in a good way. It became clear that many industries can work online,
and employees can have more free time for their personal lives and
still be productive. I think that after overcoming the crisis it is very
important to reformat working conditions. The virus showed how
people can be mobile and self-organized. Musicians can give online
concerts, a favourite coffee shop can deliver coffee to your home, and
activists can hold a rally using Google maps. This is very cool and in the
future, we need to move further in this direction. It seems to me that
even when the virus disappears, we should try to save online options
for those people who cannot or do not want to attend an event.
