Oleksandra Maksymchuk

Graduated from the Dnipro College of Culture and Arts.

"To me, contemporary ballet is like a living gallery of art. It’s unpredictable, interactive, and technologically advanced. It embodies empathy, perfection, and wisdom."

Since 2019, she has been a member of the Kyiv Modern-Ballet theatre.

"My experience with Kyiv Modern-Ballet has given me a sense of theatrical home, a constant drive for self-improvement, and the best friends I could ask for."

Tours:

Switzerland, Denmark, and various cities across Ukraine.

"What inspires me most in contemporary ballet is the simplicity and accessibility of reflecting reality in so many ways. The presence of energy, technique, and the absence of rigid structures. The process of creating choreography itself is what fascinates me."

"One of the toughest challenges I faced was learning a part just a few hours before the performance, right on stage. It was intense, fast-paced, and unforgettable. But with the support and belief of my colleagues, we managed to do it with quality."

"In my career, there have been several turning points, a few existential crises in life, but the hardest came during the full-scale invasion. I believe in the Ukrainian army and want to continue supporting Ukrainian culture no matter what. Creating art here, right now, is vital, meaningful, and I see it as the most profound growth in my professional life."
