Ukrainian journalist and artist Lyudmila Makey opened her personal exhibition "Bright on Black" today, with proceeds going to charity in Ukraine.

Makey has exhibited several paintings he made himself at the National Library of Kosovo "Pjetër Bogdani" in Pristina, the price of which is ten euros.

Journalist and writer Lyudmila Makey said that when the exhibition opened, there was great interest in purchasing her paintings.

She emphasized that she will send the proceeds from this exhibition to help the Ukrainian army.

Makey said future exhibitions will be larger, reports KosovaPress.

"Prishtina "It's my second home. It's a special place for my heart, because here I met very friendly and hospitable people. They are extremely friendly. Now I have many friends, colleagues. I have the opportunity to continue my work as a journalist and to realize myself as an artist... It's unexpected for me, but for now everything is sold. And I feel that I need to paint more and more, because many people want to buy them. The next exhibition, I think, will be bigger.... I have some of my Ukrainian colleagues, volunteers. They are helping the Ukrainian army," said Makey.

Ukrainian journalist and artist Lyudmila Makey, who has been living in Pristina for some time now, said that this place is "a wonderful love for her."

She emphasized that when she paints, she heals by dreaming of peace in her country, Ukraine.

"Prishtina "It's my wonderful love. So, I get a lot of inspiration from my friends, from the wonderful nature, from the Germia Park. You know, it's very difficult when every day you read very sad news from Ukraine. And every shot and bombardment leaves a hole in my heart. So, when I paint, I heal. I dream of peace, of love, of happiness in our families," Makey emphasized.

Erblina Kransiqi from the non-governmental organization Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS), said that this two-day activity of Makey helps refugees acclimatize to the country and release themselves by expressing art, reports KosovaPress.

The solo exhibition "Bright on Black" is open today and Wednesday from 11:00 a.m. to 16:00 p.m.

This exhibition is the third in a row by Ukrainian journalist Lyudmyla Makey.
