We were lucky to catch up with Veronika Paderni recently and have shared our conversation below.

Veronika , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. We’d love to hear about when you first realized that you wanted to pursue a creative path professionally.

I started considering a career in the art world after doing numerology readings for my friends. I realized that numbers and symbols carry a deep energy that can be translated into visual form, creating meaningful and powerful artwork. This connection between numerology and art became the foundation of my creative journey.”

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

Through my brand, Galaxy Epop, I create digital artwork rooted in symbolism and numerology. My journey began with numerology readings for friends, which revealed how numbers and symbols shape our lives in profound ways. I translate these energies into art, blending mysticism with contemporary aesthetics.

One of the highlights of my artistic career was having my work featured as the cover of The Laurel of Asheville in August. The piece, Mercury 5, reflects my exploration of cosmic symbolism and numerology. Since moving from Miami to Asheville last year, being part of this vibrant creative community has been an incredible experience, connecting me with like-minded artists. (You can find the feature here: The Laurel of Asheville – August https://thelaurelofasheville.com/arts/cover-artist-galaxy-epop/ ).

I am also proud to be connected with the Museum of Art Asheville, where my work aligns with the city’s growing art scene, further expanding my presence and community involvement.

I specialize in creating personalized digital pieces based on individual numerology profiles, as well as broader collections exploring universal archetypes and cosmic themes. My work integrates esoteric symbolism with modern digital techniques, offering not just art but tools for self-discovery, energy alignment, and personal empowerment.

What sets me apart is my ability to craft art that resonates on a deeper, energetic level, using specific symbols, colors, and numerological insights to enhance its impact. Through Galaxy Epop, my mission is to bridge the mystical with the tangible, creating art that is both visually beautiful and energetically meaningful.”

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

The mission of Galaxy Epop is to merge art, numerology, and symbolism to create digital works that are not only visually compelling but also energetically meaningful. Through design, painting, and experimentation with artificial intelligence, Galaxy Epop explores the archetypal power of numbers, colors, and forms, transforming each creation into an experience of inner resonance.

Beyond visual art, the project integrates concepts of protection (DOMUS PROTECTION), personal transformation (Project Xenia), and the deep connection between artistic expression and esoteric wisdom. Galaxy Epop serves as a bridge between the mystical and the modern, offering unique artistic experiences that inspire and empower.

At its core, Galaxy Epop is a catalyst for the awakening of global consciousness. Through symbolic art, numerology, and esoteric storytelling, it encourages individuals to reconnect with their inner essence, embrace transformation, and elevate their awareness.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

Moving from Miami to Asheville was more than a relocation—it was a leap into the unknown, a journey of transformation, and a test of resilience. This city, with its artistic soul and vibrant energy, welcomed me into a new chapter of my creative path. ‘

The gallery and studio where I worked became spaces of reinvention, where art was not just exhibited but lived. Helene’s presence and influence left a mark on these places, shaping the way creativity flowed and evolved. Through every challenge and every shift, I found my strength in artistic expression, using symbols, numerology, and esoteric elements to translate my personal transformation into visual storytelling.

Art and the City is my way of capturing this journey—how places shape us, how art transforms spaces, and how resilience fuels creation. Asheville became my canvas, and my work continues to reflect the energy of this city and its people.
