What is life if not a wonderful story?
MARIYA KOROSTELYOVA
When I present myself, I always start with the: so, I was born in Kazakhstan, raised in China and since 2015 I live in France. But ethnically I’m a mix of Ukrainian and Russian blood. I can’t clearly answer “Where am I from”, but I got many, many stories to tell. In fact, storytelling is the essence of my approach: I don’t create for the sake of creating. I always connect stories to big ideas through images.
As in my lifetime I often found myself in completely new environments, I understood this world through colours, shapes, expressions, developed a strong empathy, the ability to listen, to adapt and pay close attention to details.
Tell me about yourself during a discovery call, let’s see if we click and should start working together on your objectives!
