‘My heart beats for the UAE’: Artist in Belarus

DUBAI: A 27-year-old artist from Belarus in Europe, who has never been to the UAE, has made nearly 400 sketches of the Emirates, covering its Rulers, landscape and historic sites.
Country of dreams

Yuliya Kravets told XPRESS from her homecountry that the sketches are available on her Instagram page, where she has 90,000 followers. Although she comes across as someone who has lived in the UAE and is familiar with its culture and people, Kravets said she has never been to the country of her imagination and dreams and she started sketching the UAE only three years ago.

An architect by profession, her penchant for the Emirates began with an assignment in 2014. “I sketched the Shaikh Zayed Grand Mosque for one of my first assignments as an architecture student,” she said, recollecting how its majestic image had caught her fancy.

She said she initially did not know where the mosque was located, but when she found out it was in the UAE she began to research more about the Emirates. Around the same time she converted to Islam, she added.

Fascinated
Fascinated by what the UAE has to offer, Kravets said the country and its leadership became the subject of her sketches. “I did a dozen sketches of Shaikh Hamdan Bin Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum (Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council), at the races. I’ve also drawn inspiration from some pictures of the late Shaikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s childhood with the late Shaikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, among others. My favourite is a sketch of His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum (Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai) which I did a couple of months ago.”

Kravets said her works were a tribute to “one of the finest countries in the world”.
Remarkable growth
“The rapid growth and development of the UAE has been remarkable. I have never come across anyone from here who has anything negative to say about the country.

“This shows how happy the people are with the place and its Rulers. My heart beats for the UAE. I love the UAE,” she said.

Kravets said her drawings were based on pictures she sourced from the internet. Recently, her Instagram followers from the UAE had started sending her some images. “I am looking for old, interesting pictures.”
But when will Kravets make a visit to the country of her dreams?
“I have no idea,” she said.
But when she does, Bastakiya in old Dubai will be her first stop. “I want to sketch it live,” she added.

"Pachachi had strongly opposed the invasion and occupation of Iraq and was involved in creating an exile deal that the UAE offered Saddam Hussein in a last minute effort to avoid the impending war and suffering of the Iraqi people. Hussein allegedly accepted the offer to try to halt the invasion and bring elections to Iraq within six months, according to Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan; however, the invasion still went ahead.[11] In February 2003, Pachachi refused a seat on the US-appointed six-member leadership council set up at a meeting of major opposition groups in the Kurdistan Region of northern Iraq.[12]"

A Belarusian artist is sketching the royal history of the UAE

www.khaleejtimes.com

Any Instagrammer would agree that it is possible to come across at least 10 new profiles in five minutes of browsing. Sure, you don't end up talking to every person you check out. Leave alone engage in a Skype conversation. But her profile was different.I landed on her Instagram page following the hashtag trail she had left behind: the names of the UAE's royals. I spent time browsing her works. Again, a new thing as a quick surf is usually enough. At first glimpse, Yulia Kravets' Instagram profile gives you a peek into the mesmerising lives of the royal family, with some pictures dating back four decades.
