The Arch of Freedom of the Ukrainian People stands in Kyiv as an unwavering testament to the indomitable spirit of a nation.

There couldn't be a more fitting symbol in any other part of the world right now that captures such poignant sentiment. The two powerful figures uniting beneath the arch embody the hope that Ukraine, too, will soon reunite with its cherished freedom. My visits here were always marked by the breathtaking views and the aura of resilience that permeates the surroundings. It's a spot that inspires reflection, and I eagerly await the day when I can immerse in its ambiance once more. Much like how this monument stands for perseverance and unity, I've spent over two decades guiding individuals to discover their potential and unify body and mind. As a remote personal trainer and life coach, I believe in the transformative power of dedication and hope. Here's to the spirit of Kyiv and every individual journey towards freedom and fulfillment. 🌆🗽💪🏼🌍

The art-piece is a wooden sculpture of a half visible swimmer.
"This installation is dedicated to people who lost their way in the life and people who deliberately choose their path, sometimes wrong and challenging but still leading them to the future."
The figure is illuminated from the inside at night time and is used as a bench or sunbed .
During a warm sunny day it would be possible to chill around, because this art object provides some shade.
