emotional journey
Hello, thank you for your interest!
My name is Anna Vlasova and I live in central Russia, Vladimir.
I mostly work with yarn and fabric, occasionally I can write small texts and poems.
I am very grateful for this seminar and V-NYI in general. It kind of opened my eyes on who I am, and it made me feel so much more stable and comfortable within myself. I don't feel that isolated in my ideas and values. It made me feel hopeful about my own future and our future. It made me understand the meaning of community.
I feel like I'm finally healing. I have a voice now.

Work On Longing
“Longing makes your heart full of worms.
Dullness kills the butterflies.” (unfinished)
The topic of one of our seminars was longing. And I realized that I feel very uncomfortable in this feeling, I don’t want to experience it.
So, I decided to support myself with this work – yes, longing can be a heavy feeling, but without it, my heart would be empty.
I think that suppressing my longing makes me dull. And dullness is damaging to my heart.
Longing is tiring, longing is tearful. But it's a part of me and my experience. It gives me something to work with. And dullness does not.
