In the part 3 years I worked art spaces as artist community and event manager. I was in charge of empowering community of artists, produced numerous events and created tons of content for social media :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like classic "must-see" movies cause they are good, ok?) Like "Clockwork orange", "Eyes wide open", "Mad Max", "Juno" (not as classic but cute), etc..

I listen to different music, but for me it's not "any kind", it is quite special. I can say that I like electronic, indie rock, rap, dancehall... Well, maybe any kind :)

As for books - Murakami, Cortazar, Marquez, Pavich, Bulgakov.
