This video shows the winner of "Ukraine's Got Talent".

Kseniya Simonova, 24,draws a series of pictures on an illuminated sand
table showing how ordinary people were affected by the German invasion
during World War II.

Her talent, which admittedly is a strange one, is mesmeric to watch.
The images, projected onto a large screen, moved many in the audience
to tears and she won the top prize of about $130,000.00.

She begins by creating a scene showing a couple sitting holding hands
on a bench under a starry sky, but then warplanes appear and the happy
scene is obliterated. It is replaced by a woman's face crying, but
then a baby arrives and the woman smiles again.

Once again war returns and Miss Simonova throws the sand into chaos
from which a young woman's face appears. She quickly becomes an old
widow, her face wrinkled and sad, before the image turns into a
monument to an Unknown Soldier. This outdoor scene becomes framed by
a window as if the viewer is looking out on the monument from within a
house.

In the final scene, a mother and child appear inside and a man
standing outside, with his hands pressed against the glass, saying
goodbye. The Great Patriotic War, as it is called in Ukraine ,
resulted in one in four of the population being killed with eight to
11 million deaths out of a populationof42 million.

Kseniya Simonova says:” I find it difficult enough to create art using
paper and pencils or paint brushes, but using sand and fingers is for
me. The art, especially when the war is used as the subject matter,
even brings some audience members to tears. And there's surely no
bigger compliment."
