ARTIST VOICE

I'm a visual artist and illustrator. Nature is an inexhaustible source of inspiration for creating my works. When all your attention is focused on studying the shape and pattern of the flower, then you begin to feel like a pioneer - this is such a pure feeling that connects you with your childhood.

The theme of memories and dreams is also present in my works, which is why I use various techniques to create them. So, for example, I started working in stencil printing technology, which allows you to make air prints with a large number of variations.By pressing stamp ink through a stencil onto paper, we get a grainy texture that can either scatter into tiny dots or gather into a single spot. The very process of working on a stencil puts me in a waking dream state and helps convey these feelings to the viewer.
