Born in 1975 and raised in Moscow, I earned my Master’s degree in design from the Moscow State Stroganoff Academy of Industrial and Applied Arts in 1999. Established in 1825, the university has a rich tradition focused on academic art forms like drawing, painting, and sculpture, earning it the title of the Bauhaus of Russia.

My art has been showcased in various locations across Norway, with pieces purchased by private collectors in Russia, Norway, USA, and Germany. While I employ techniques such as lithography, linography, and aquatint, Ink & Pen remains my primary method. Recently, my style has evolved, incorporating gradients, colored ink, watercolors, and markers alongside the traditional monochrome approach.

Rich in detail and ornamentation, my figurative drawings delve into themes of decadence as an aesthetic in modern consumer culture. Through intricate and refined lines, I aim to juxtapose beauty with a dark, evocative atmosphere. Although my work is grounded in classical techniques, it is not didactic; instead, it encourages viewers to resonate with their own emotions, inviting interpretation and introspection.
