About artist
I am an artist who discovered painting in 2016 - since then, it has become an inseparable part of my life. I hold a degree in renewable energy engineering and work as a software engineer, so my daily routine is often highly analytical and logical. That is precisely why I use painting as a space to let my creative side run free.
In my art, clear boundaries between reality and dream often dissolve. I aim to “add new shades to reality” - I distort the human body, remove the face, or give figures unusual forms. Through my art, I often strive to make the human body itself become something celestial.
I usually create using acrylic paint, brushes, palette knives, sponges, and various construction or household tools.
My creative work is not limited to visual art - I also create music. In music, I express myself through sound, voice, and words: I compose melodies, write lyrics, and perform vocals.
