Tetiana's designs became a staple at prestigious events like the Olympic Games and continue to stand out for their innovation, lasting comfort, and personalized elements, catering to elite athletes from National Teams worldwide. Through a process that she describes as a form of meditation, Tetiana creates visual masterpieces that resonate with the individuality and style of each athlete, making her an indispensable figure in the world of rhythmic gymnastics attire.
STATEMENT OF ART:Design and art, to me, are intertwined melodies in the grand composition of life, where each stroke of creativity, every stitch, and the shimmering crystals on a rhythmic gymnastics leotard become notes in the symphony of design. Design is the manifestation of thoughtful intention, turning ideas into tangible expressions that serve a purpose, solve a problem, or ignite an emotion. This process involves functionality dancing gracefully with aesthetics, resulting in creations that transcend the ordinary. Simultaneously, art is the soul breathing life into the functional, transcending mere utility to evoke emotions, tell stories, and create connections—a language of emotions, perceptions, and the human experience that explores the limitless realms of imagination and individuality, unrestricted by practical constraints.
My perspective on art and design is deeply rooted in personal experience and a journey that began with a mother's love and a daughter's passion for rhythmic gymnastics. Design, to me, is a dynamic dialogue between form and function, where innovation and aesthetics harmonize. Art, on the other hand, is the heartbeat of my creations, breathing life into fabrics and transforming them into captivating stories that unfold on the gymnastics stage.
In a single line, my motto encapsulates the essence of my artistic journey: "Where Creativity Meets Performance." This embodies my commitment to pushing boundaries, blending creativity with functionality, and crafting leotards that not only dazzle the eye but elevate the performances of gymnasts worldwide.
In the grand composition of design and art, I see myself as a weaver of dreams, crafting each leotard with passion, innovation, and a touch of artistic magic. My designs are not merely costumes; they are stories waiting to be told, emotions waiting to be expressed, and dreams waiting to be lived on the rhythmic gymnastics stage. Where creativity meets performance, there lies the heart of my artistic journey.
