A friend of mine showed me this, and I think it is amazing.  It is a video of Kseniya Simonova, a sand artist from Ukraine who won the Ukrainian version of “America’s Got Talent.”  She uses dramatic music, a giant light box, and pure imagination to depict Ukrainian life during Germany’s occupation of Ukraine during World War II. The most amazing thing about it is that Simonova had been drawing for less than a year when she entered the contest.

The words she writes at the end are, “You’re always near, 1945″.
