All my life I have lived in Siberia, near Lake Baikal. And today all my work is permeated with its unique contrasts. When I create my next art, I plunge into it with my head, as if into the waters of Lake Baikal, fixing every step taken.

 This process simultaneously energizes me and relaxes me. Art helps me express myself when words are not enough. With it, I explore myself, my feelings and emotions. I would say that the purpose of my inner journey is to unravel the mystery of being.

 In my search, I explore nature in all its aspects from the plant world to man, using environmentally friendly materials for this: clay, gypsum, acrylic and fabric.
