Because she is a talented artist and a very nice person.
Her solo exhibition "Weightlessness" consisted of
a video installation, 25 electronic prints and several computer animations won a high appraisal of visitors.

Russian people like the sea and the ocean very much. For many of them it is like a dream to visit Mediterranean. This dream became a reality due to
excellent exhibition of Magdalene.

Theme: The expression of the body's weightlessness in the water. For me the underwater environment represents the liquid security, the purification, the weightlessness, the isolation...
