Tatyana Binovskaya- artist

My new place of residence is Brunswick. In the end, with the help of Igor and Rita, I found an apartment for myself. The room was en-suite in a house in Brunswick West. The mistress of the house was an Asian woman of short stature. Besides me, there were two other guys living in the house, so a separate bathroom with a toilet meant a lot. We were on duty, during which we took turns cleaning the whole house. One of the windows of my room overlooked Victoria Street and there I had very noisy and cheerful neighbors who woke me up in the morning - these are rosella parrots. Bright, green, yellow-red friends began their days cheerfully. And one evening I saw something strange. On the electric wires stretched from my house in the opposite direction, someone stirred. He was taller than a cat with a long tail. When I told about the tightrope walker in the office this morning, they told me it was a possum. Brunswick, like many other areas, was a typical Australian area. All of Melbourne was the

A big disappointment that almost ended my residency in Australia. We got to work, and everything went on as usual, but I could no longer stay with my new friends. I had to look for an apartment to rent. And no one was going to help me with this. Everyone was busy with their lives. I went to our various real estate websites and after dipping into them, I realized that with the budget laid down for us by the company, it was possible to rent a house with, say, 4-5 more Asian women. Everything was difficult, also because I did not know the city, and in general, I was poorly oriented in it at first. Somehow I found an apartment and arranged a viewing. It was a whole story and I will describe it to you. I went to the navigator, and the phone charge might not be enough. It was raining lightly, and the streets were already not crowded, it was deserted and it was not possible to ask anyone about the correctness of my route. After an hour and a half walk, I reached the given address, and althoug

Melbourne. Collins Street https://binovska.blogspot.com/2016/07/city-melbourne-notes-july-2016.html I must definitely tell you about the place where the Redbubble office building is located and then you will be able to understand the significance and position in the financial market of the company. Collins street. The street was laid out by surveyor Robert Hoddle and was one mile long and 99 feet (30 m) wide.) Collins Street was named after Lieutenant Governor David Collins, who led a group of settlers to establish a short-lived settlement at Sorrento on the Mornington Peninsula south of Melbourne in the early 19th century. Subsequently, David Collins became the first governor of the Van Diemen's Land colony, and later the governor of Tasmania. Down Collins Street is Southern Cross Station At the west end of the street was the home of Hill Batman, an adventurer and rancher who built the house in April 1836, where he lived until his death in 1839. The first improvements to the stree

Friday. News of Noordhoek. https://www.facebook.com/binovskaya/posts/pfbid02fRrDjQ5K3rXcEUifG1BGCjHJEVZWsULdCXJFR1Fue1iEkY2W8G2QBfPMSqKQ7gsml Not much news this week. I'm telling: First, we already have tickets to return to Cyprus. Second, you probably remember my Rhino (Regards from Eternity), which was sold for 10,000 dollars just before the war, so Rada had a 170x250 meter stretcher in the house and I started a new painting. I will try very hard to complete it in a month. January 25 - Tatyana's Day, which became very, very sad for me, because it was on this day that my mother passed away 21 years ago. We all mourn for her and my grandmother, and the night before I had a terrible dream. I will tell you. Sorry for the details, but I dreamed that I was sitting in the toilet of the house where we lived on French Boulevard. I am sitting next to me, almost right on me, water drips from the shower and I try to screw it on. The sliding door suddenly begins to open and a tiny black s

Upon arrival in Melbourne, I was met by a representative of the company Anna who took me to Igor and Rita Grossman. How lucky I was to meet such wonderful people: like Igor and Rita. Not fully understanding how my accommodation in Melbourne would be arranged, I discussed this with my friends. Tatyana Vasiliadi, my old friend, contacted her classmate Igor and asked him to accept me at first. I have many friends in Australia, but there was no one in Melbourne. It's a real miracle that I ended up in a family of such kind people. It is to them that I am infinitely indebted for the fact that I still stayed there. I was received, fed, watered, and taken care of like my sister or aunt, who "came from Kyiv" for 10 long days! I am very touched. I was met in the company, but no one was going to deal with the resettlement - it was enough that they paid for it. It turned out that fin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Enltv24Cs6Y Flight to Melbourne. June 9, 2016 Flight to Australia. In the morning I woke up without suspecting anything and decided to put a new post on FB, I wanted to write that I was turning into a migratory bird and starting my long flight. My daughter Sylvia called and said in an alarming voice: "Terrorist attack in Istanbul, many victims, and your flight to Abu Dhabi canceled" The attack took place on the night of June 29th. After Sylvia's call, we turned on the TV and watched the details of this terrible crime. I didn’t have the feeling that I needed to stop; the day before, such a lot of work was done to obtain a visa and buy tickets that it didn’t occur to me to postpone the trip. The plane took off with a 2-hour delay and I flew to Istanbul. Ataturk Airport was as usual full of people and nothing reminded me of what had happened. After feeling like you are a soccer ball and you are being chased from rack to rack, I had to buy a ne

Marcel and my victory in the 2016 residence competition. Odessa. 2016 https://binovska.blogspot.com/2016/07/httpwww.html Do you know that our greatest asset in life is our grandchildren? And the more of them, the more joy we experience. Radu and I practically helped raise all our 5 grandchildren except Theodore. At the time of his birth, we were not in Ukraine and could not be participants in this important process. But Marcel grew up before our eyes and today I will show you her photo from the distant 2016 from a life that we now only dream of in good dreams. It was with Marseille that I experienced one very important event for my entire future life - this is the victory in the Art Residences competition from the Australian company Redbubble. I already told you that when I met Maria Theron in Cape Town, I found out about the existence of a good opportunity for artists and for a long time there, away from my friends, my new virtual friends saved me. But by this time, I had already stop
