I live in Prague — it is an ancient and beautiful city, where inspiration finds you just walking along the streets.
I have a small studio in the attic, with tiled red roofs seen from the windows. In the winter, I see smoke ascend from the chimneys as many houses are still heated with fireplaces. Thanks to the arrangement of the windows in the ceiling, there is a beautiful natural light.
Often I make quick sketches on the Subway or Tram. I like to watch other people's family photos. An old movie, a tune on the radio (and I always listen to music when I work), a conversation I overheard, an episode on the street. Sometimes it's enough to see an anything from childhood, and it triggers a memory, which asks to be put on a canvas.
Important for me: : movement, flight or jump, rotation. Perhaps this is the sculptor in me — I try to show "hidden" dynamics inside the static figure. When naming my pieces I try to hint at my perception of the plot, without limiting the viewer's imagination.
I am a professional artist (Saratov Bogolyubov Art College bachelor's degree in sculpture) I am a participant of exhibitions in Russia and Czech Republic: Mánes Gallery in Prague/ International Watercolour Festival
Artworks are in private collections all over the world: United Kingdom, USA, Canada, Australia, Europe.
I hope you enjoy my work, thank you for your attention!
