MY STORY
I believe in channelling my creative urges in order to produce unique artwork in Anchorage. My inspiration for my work is the miracle of life. Yuliya's art is born out of a combination of my education, training and experience, which allows my perspective as an artist to remain traditional yet contemporary. Art is how I battle against the indifference of humans and offer new ways of viewing the world.
Humanity’s plight is a concept the artist has been examining for several years, and it finally comes to life through my recent collections. Although this is a theme commonly explored by various artists, there is something uniquely fresh about my latest work, including the The Mobile World collection. Explore this and other collections below.
THE PROGRAM IS PERFORMED IN BEAUTIFULLY DETAILED, ELABORATE COSTUMES THAT WERE DESIGNED BY YULIYA HELGESEN-THOMPSON AND HAND-MADE BY THE GROUP MEMBERS. EACH DANCE HAS ITS OWN SET OF COSTUMES TO REFLECT THE MOOD, SPIRIT AND MEANING OF THE DANCE. THE GROUPED HAS BEEN DUBBED “RUSSIAN FLOATING FAIRIES” BECAUSE OF THE INTRICATE FOOTWORK THAT DISTINGUISHES THE SLOW DANCES.
A Study
WHETHER IT’S A LYRICAL ELEGANCE OF SLOW “MOSCOW NIGHTS” OR ENERGETIC, FOOT-STOMPING RHYTHMS OF A VILLAGE DANCE, THE AUDIENCE IS DAZZLED BY THE ENERGY, BEAUTY AND WELL-CHOREOGRAPHED PATTERN OF THE PERFORMANCE.
A Series
. YULIYA ALSO DESIGNED AND SEWED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COSTUMES FOR THE LOCALLY ACCLAIMED AND AWARD WINNING RUSSIAN DANCE TROUPE- SUDARUSHKA, WHICH WAS FEATURED ON THE COVER OF THE 8 IN THE ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS. SHE IS ALSO A DANCER IN THE GROUP.
