I create scenographic paintings where the visual language of musicals — dramatic lighting, deep burgundy tones, close-ups, folds of fabric — helps express complex emotional states. My works are not just images; they are staged moments of experience: anxiety, burnout, the longing to be oneself.
I started drawing in childhood while attending art school, but set it aside for many years. I worked as an economist, engineer, and data analyst. Art remained something private, almost hidden — until it gradually became a way to maintain inner stability. Especially during a depressive episode in 2021, painting helped me not only survive, but finally admit: I want to be an artist.
I didn’t try to invent a style — it emerged on its own. Now, in my work, I simply capture what feels true to me — and, as it turns out, resonates with others. I paint for those who know what it means to live between a role and the real self. My paintings offer a space to be honest, even if just for a single square meter.
