Particular interests of Marina Zaykova (from interview)
Fine Arts Artists names are of no importance to me. Significant are the process and the result of the process, therefore I'd prefer to keep from telling names - I dolike followers of many schools. While the works of any of the followers can'twholly express my attitute to the school. I'm fond of impressionists. Do likemodernist style as a decorating current. Eclecticism is glad to me too: the blendingof styles causes a variety to be a unity, plus it allows the extremes to coincide.Performance is also close to me. Music Very close to me are Italian Renascence composers – the epoch of the "revival" ofthe chamber music attracts greatly. This is what can be called "personalmusic": it reflectes a person's sphere of undercover senses. Acoustics iswhat can really carry away, since it is closest to a sound as such, and to memusic as a whole is, first of all, sounds. Nevertheless silence is the best music. Literature The wisest, the most useful and the most poetic book is Bible, I would say. NowhereI've read so exalted poetry of love, nowhere else the poetic nature of beinguncovers so sincerely. The most closest to me is the literary philosophic conception of H. Hesse ('TheGlass Bead Game'). In my time the prose of R. Bach made a strong impact on me,as well as A. de Saint ExupОry and I.Brodsky. Style clothing Eclectic "free-style", trending towards classic: "I consider clothingstyle should match with your life style, your "trajectory" in the ambient.The middle is inadmissible to me: either a prince or a pauper. I appreciate accessoriesbut never use them. I believe that one's clothing must not contradict his intrinsicessence".
Cinema Films of A. Tarkovsky, S. Parajanov. Favourite color At one time I was attracted to the blue color, then - violet. Now my favouriteare all colors, or rather colors together, in spectrum. Perfume "I never use it, prefer natural scents. As a matter of fact I gravitateto everything natural, therefore tend to use cometics very carefully". Favourite drink Fresh squeezed carrot juice. Favourite dish "Easy" food: dishes, which don't need to be cooked, useful, better- vegetable. "I don't like to cook, except that for somebody - not for myself". Favourite animal "I adore all animals, especially dogs (but cats love me instead)".
