Loud and proud
Researcher, writer
"Loud and Proud" is my artistic journey to challenge norms and celebrate authenticity through a blend of book writing, music, dance, and crafts. As an artist navigating my identity in a complex world, this project is my voice against conformity, exploring themes of self-expression, gender, and acceptance. It’s a reflection of my life as a nomad and refugee, seeking to connect with others through shared experiences of resilience and the pursuit of well-being.

"Look what I found in my mouth"

 
Сomposer, performer, singer
For over a quarter of a century, I have devoted myself to the study and practice of vocal performance.

Through my years of rigorous training, my body has accumulated a vast repository of data on the production of a diverse range of sounds, from ethereal whispers to thunderous roars.

Practicing mindful listening as a method of composition
 
Though it may seem naive to record the sounds of the world around us - the rustling of leaves, the whispering wind, the passing conversations and phrases - Katsia finds beauty in the unexpected.

A simple stream can become a symphony, and the buzz of a fly can become a dramatic solo.

 
In these five compositions, Katsia takes us on a journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Samogitia. From the serene Japanese Garden to the haunting Juozas Laivis Art Cemetery, Katsia's soundscapes transport us to a world beyond words.

Through her unique blend of audio recording, vocal improvisation, arrangement, mixing, and mastering, Katsia's compositions are a testament to her mastery of the art form.

With each note and every sound, she inspires us to listen more deeply, to open our hearts to the beauty of the world around us.
2020 ongoing project
"A song for you"



 
Sound and voice artist
During the pandemic, I offered to create personalized songs for my Instagram followers, providing comfort and support during isolation. This project took on new meaning during the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, when music became a source of healing.

I  began to gently carry people's stories, listening intently and crafting bespoke songs that spoke to their unique experiences. In doing so, I discovered new ways of expressing myself through the use of Latin texts, nor just syllables, or through the deconstruction of classical compositions to create entirely new melodies and rhythms.

 
Today, my passion for creating personalized songs continues to grow, as I remain committed to using the power of music to uplift and support those who entrust me with their stories.

​a member of the well-being and resilience artistic collective

 
Resilience and well-being practitioner
Teacher and mentor
I started to work as a resilience practitioner  in the aftermath of the contentious presidential election held in Belarus in August 2020.

I was actively involved in the protest movements that followed, lending my support not only as an activist, but also by working directly with political prisoners, journalists, activists, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

 

I has developed a unique approach to helping people reduce stress and achieve greater mind-body-voice connection through singing and improvisation. By encouraging my clients to explore the interplay between movement, breath, and sound, I helps them unlock the full potential of their voices and connect with their deepest inner selves.
 

Through my tireless efforts to promote healing, growth, and self-discovery, I has touched the lives of countless individuals, empowering them to overcome adversity and achieve greater harmony and balance in their lives.
