Arkushyna has participated in composition workshops, took lessons for improvisation and composition in Russia and Ukraine.

The various ensembles, including Ensemble Nostri Temporis, Ensemble JungeMusik Berlin, Amsterdam Collage Ensemble, Moscow Contemporary Music Ensemble, ensemble MusikFabrik, performed music by Anna Arkushyna.
Körnung (Graininess) for ensemble (2012–2013). I have been for a long time attracted by topic of grain and noise on old photos or photos with low quality, which consists of very small details and particles, which sometimes you can see even with the naked eye. Something similar I tried to reproduce in this piece. The composition was based on the idea of relationships of granulated sound and white noise. Every element I mind as a small atom. I choose special kinds of sounds like white noise, or very quiet and fragile sounds (airsounds, frullatos, tremolos, and very soaring noises).
The structure consists of several periods connected by the sounding of just eight pitches. The periods pass smoothly without any stops and contrasts. Each period has its own climax and a kind of texture. (Anna Arkushyna)
