Biography

edit

Larysa Matvyeyeva was born on May 9, 1969, in Mykolaiv, Ukraine.[6]

Matvyeyeva graduated from The Mykolaiv National Pedagogical University (now—The Mykolaiv Vasyl Sukhomlynskyi National University) in 1992 (Faculty of History and Law). She has worked at the Mykolaiv State Enterprise "Shipyard named after 61 Communards" -- "UkrOboronProm"[7] since 1993 in the Computer and Information Department of Administrative Systems, and since 2007—she has been a chief second to the head-chief of the department.[8]

Matvyeyeva has written poetry since her youth. She attended The Literary Studio "Borviy" led by the Ukrainian poet Dmytro Kremin at the Mykolaiv Regional House of Creative Arts. Her first poetry publication appeared in the Mykolaiv Regional Youth Newspaper Lenin's Followers in 1990.[9] She writes in the Russian language and employs a range of poetic forms. Her first book of poetry, Motif of Destiny,[10] was published in 1994. She won the Mykolaiv poetry award for young writers, The Golden Harp, in 1995.[11]

Matvyeyeva has published in a number genres: poetry, prose, essay, translation, poetic drama, and song lyrics. A number of Ukrainian composers and singers have created over 30 songs using her poetry for lyrics.[12]

She is one of the editors for the international online magazine, Literary Mykolaiv.[13]

A great amount of Matvyeyeva's work has seen publication in the local Mykolaiv and Ukrainian national press. She has received many awards for her contributions to the cultural development of Mykolaiv Region and Ukrainian culture and literature.[14]

"I would say, no exact diagnosis
Exists in the medical archives other than this one:
The more worse your heart feels and soul suffers,
The better poetry you write!"

(Larysa Matvyeyeva, from the poetry collection, "Soul")
