On November 21, 2023, 2nd year students studying in the specialty “Design” took part in the opening of the exhibition “Focus of Attention” by a contemporary artist from Astana, Evgenia Grekina. The space of the capital's art gallery "HAS SANAT" was intended for an immersive art project. In it, E. Grekina combined modern art practices (minimal art, video art, music, performance) with her own subjective understanding of stress, burnout and information noise. One of the speakers at the vernissage was art critic G.N. Povalyashko, associate professor at VShID MUA.
The experimental therapeutic exhibition was a revelation for students in the Finance and Marketing groups. They visited her a few days after the opening day and thus expressed their impressions:
- “One of the melodies really felt like childhood, teenage memories (a feeling of warmth), and the other melody already conveys the transience of time, meditation, relaxation. In fact, a very interesting topic, we would go to one more of these exhibitions”;
- “A very interesting idea with an education room, with writing feelings from music on a piece of paper or in the form of a drawing. The feeling is simply unreal, we really enjoyed it.”
