Born 1995 in Tver, Russia
Lives and works in Cellino Attanasio, Italy
"A multidisciplinary academic path led me to a practice that brings together diverse techniques and materials, driven by an experimental approach that explores the boundaries between the natural and the artificial, the physical and the metaphysical. My work is closely tied to the theme of existentialism, investigating the tangible relationship between the individual and space—how one shapes and influences the other over time in a continuous exchange. Through this lens, I aim to reveal a unique perspective on how abandoned environments retain a life of their own, telling silent stories and blending elements of the past, present, and future into a timeless visual narrative".
