“I invited the guests of the Open Studios not to carry their burden on their shoulders, shifting it onto mine. And literally: on the table there was a backpack, paper, paints, brushes. Anyone could write about what worries them. As a result, over the course of 3 months, not only the surface was painted, but many messages were also placed inside the backpack. During the meeting, I voiced this pain in different ways, and everyone who came was also able to part with their bad things in different ways — on the magical day of the spring equinox, ” — Olga Mikhalchuk.
