Iren Zhorushkina

My name is Iryna. I am an economist. Working in biggest European bank. As a child, I loved to draw and even studied at an art school for 5 years. Later, life made its own adjustments. Inspiration came extremely rarely, at certain stages in life, and eventually disappeared completely. More than 7 years of drawing was not in my life. The return to drawing happened in 2021, and the swing happened already in 2022. It is obvious that the war in my country have revealed the buried potential. When you want to live, you start to live in a new way.

I am inspired by people, events around me, emotions that absorb me. I depict my thoughts, my emotions. There are many and they are different. Simple and difficult. Bright and black. Somewhere there is a piece of philosophy
