Stitch in Time Participant February 2010

Evgenia was born and raised in Ukraine. She first showed her interest in art during her childhood years before she even learned to write. But her way to becoming a graphic designer was neither straightforward nor easy.

After leaving secondary school Evgenia entered a university and graduated 6 years later with Masters Degree in Business Law. Fortunately the nature took its course and she decided not to devote her life to legal practice. Without much hesitation she headed to London to study Graphic Design and pursue her dream of finding herself in art and design. In 2005 Evgenia graduated from London College of Communication of University of The Arts London with FE Diploma in Digital Design for Communication followed by a move back to Ukraine to work for one of the world’s leading advertising agencies Grey Worldwide. Here Evgenia developed as an Art Director, Graphic Designer and, increasingly, as an Illustrator, where she worked with such clients as Nokia, P&G, Visa, GlaxoSmithKline and BAT. From late 2007 Evgenia is based in London where she is working as a graphic designer in the fashion industry.

Update:

Evgenia is currently working part time for a local company in Haringey designing graphics for t-shirts and sportswear.
