In February 2025, at the large-scale competition Grand Final Art IV- 2025 organized by the British festival and competition organizer Golden Time Talent, Viktoriіa Avdoshуna received recognition for her talent from the international jury and the project’s audience. Her work “Dragon”, created using Lunéville embroidery and zardozi techniques, amazed the jury with its craftsmanship and attention to detail, receiving an impressive score of 98.9 points.
Viktoriіa’s work “Dragon” is not just an accessory but a true work of art. Every detail—from the sewn-on crystals to the silk organza—is selected with incredible taste. Rich blue and purple tones contrasting against a dark background create a mystical and captivating atmosphere. The dimensions of the work—34 x 29 x 6 cm in the form of a statuette and 25 cm in folded form as a pendant with a tassel—emphasize its scale and the complexity of execution.
