About Ocksana Woskoboenko

Ocksana’s writing stems from her need to observe, reflect and record. All three verbs sum her up well. She likes interacting with people and is generally inquisitive, valuing people’s stories as gifts. These gifts give Ocksana presents to reflect upon, question and learn from. She has a garden with stories attached to each plant and is fortunate enough to like travelling where she also find inspiration for her creative embroidery and can link historical facts to most needlework. So gardens, embroidery and people are Ocksana’s gods.
