Yulia, tell our readers how the idea of opening art club «CodeKY»?
CodeKY is a large online platform for the presentation of modern art objects, Ukrainian creativity. The resource is planned to be launched in 2017, and it will be promoted in North America and Europe, offering paintings, sculpture, and ceramics by Ukrainian masters.
Art Club is a location where artists and people who are interested in art gather, striving to grow intellectually and spiritually. Our Art Club hosts individual lessons for guests who want to retire and study painting or drawing, lectures on art history, workshops on ceramics and collage are organized. We have a creative team of architects, and we work together on conceptual urban planning projects, we dream of making our Ukraine modern, beautiful and organic, while preserving the flavor of our priceless culture.
Why was this name chosen, what does it symbolize?
The name means Julia Kovaleva's Secret))) The project should reflect my vision of the world and bring this vision to others. Later I read that – these are files that make it possible to decrypt audio and video sequences, and through them we see video and hear audio. Actually Codeky – and there is such a file that should show the whole world the beauty of Ukrainian culture and art. This is my dream and goal!
Tell us more about the concept of the art club: what is already available to guests, and what is planned to be added in the near future?
The task of our art club is gather a circle of guests who will be interested in my product, and help them discover themselves and understand why art is necessary for them. Therefore, in the new 2017, Yulia Polivoda and I offer Codeky guests an art therapy program that will help them look into their tomorrow.
People live in the material world and spend their energy on endless stress. Art provides an unlimited source of light and energy. Unfortunately, Soviet education, which with its system underlies today's modern Ukrainian education, pays little attention to educating a person to understand art. As a result, everyone wants to look beautiful, but few think about spiritual growth, enlightenment. And the beauty of a person, first of all, is in the radiance of the eyes, in a happy smile.
In your opinion, which category of people would be most interested in such an art space and why?
No categories of people – we are all just people))) Those who love creativity may be interested. In our space and on the site you can buy unique paintings and sculptures by Ukrainian artists, you can get invaluable knowledge, take trainings in art therapy. Our mission in the art club - show everyone that he - creator of his tomorrow, and in him there is a particle of universal light, to reveal his creative potential and limitless ability to be happy. The task of the Internet platform – to acquaint other countries with Ukrainian contemporary art, to make the whole world fall in love with our culture.

Art therapy is one of the leading directions in psychotherapy aimed at harmonizing the psycho-emotional sphere of a person. Art therapy literally translates as "healing with art", it helps to transform negative emotions into positive ones. What was hidden in our unconscious, thanks to creativity, comes out, allowing us to work with any problems. Aggression, low self-esteem, difficulties with self-identification, anger, resentment, traumatic situations - all this can be corrected through creativity.
What techniques does art therapy use?
Art therapy methods include all types of creativity - drawing, modeling with paper, paints, wood, stone, writing stories, singing, music, etc.
Why is this area of psychotherapy particularly interesting for you as a psychologist?
Through creativity, we can learn about ourselves that we know in no other way will not. Actually, we create our life with the help of imagination, which, in turn, can heal a person or, conversely, drive him into a disease. Art therapy is the work with the imagination.
How can I get the most out of therapy: by devoting time to the arts alone, or by going to places like the CodeKY Art Club?
Creativity in a team is always an opportunity to discuss the topic, manner of execution and, above all, increase the adaptive capacity of a person in society, eliminate problems in communication, build personal boundaries when interacting with others.
