Special prize Scotch 2010 / Nominee: award of Kandinsky in the category «Project of Year» 2013/ Award «PROSTO PREMIA» 2014

 

I am living and working in Moscow, Russia and now in Berlin.

I finished College of Animation Cinematography, University of Printing and Publishing as an illustrator and University of Problems of Modern Art. I am a member of Moscow Union of Artists.

I am working in Photography, Graphic and illustration. My art is in various private collections in Russia and Germany.

I think that art must make people feel, get emotional. Emotions make us think. Artist, who is trying to pass on his or her feelings through the art, understands (must understand) the consequences of his/her massages, actions and what reaction there would be on them. Would you make them smile, or angry, or sad. This is very important.
