About the Organizers:

Anna Ulyashyna:

A visual artist who channels her personal experiences and emotions into her work.
Anna's paintings vividly depict her journey through grief, highlighting the strength found in gentleness. She will showcase twelve deeply personal paintings created during her journey through loss. Inspired by the innocent love and gentleness she now misses, Anna's work offers a comforting expression of sorrow, like a gentle cloud. These pieces serve as a visual diary, capturing her process of saying goodbye and offering a glimpse into her path from sorrow to solace.

Noud van der Bas:

An Amsterdam-based ceremonial guide, singer, and writer, Noud is dedicated to leading people through spiritual experiences.
His work focuses on offering comfort and finding meaning in times of loss. Noud will guide the ceremony and provide the evening's musical accompaniment with a live performance of the album "The Cycle of Grief."
His soothing voice, well-known for its comforting qualities, presents a fresh perspective on mourning
and redemption.

Join us for this memorable evening, where art and music come together, to create a healing space for anyone who has faced loss. Allow yourself to be transported from grief to comfort and connection in the warm, welcoming atmosphere of Buiksloterkerk.
