Biography
I was born in Moscow in 1983 in a family of an artist and a programmer, which influenced my career choice and determined my interest in advanced technologies.
Since childhood, I have participated in art exhibitions and competitions, and studied painting at university (Moscow State University of Serviсe, Faculty of Design and Applied Arts, major in Miniature Painting).
In addition to my knowledge of various Ai, I have extensive experience working as a designer in Photoshop, with animation in After Effects, 3D (Cinema 4D, 3ds Max, Substance painter), and I have also studied editing and use Premiere Pro for it.
Artistic convictions
In my work, I use visual metaphors; even in illustration, I aim to convey the core ideas of a piece rather than depict specific scenes.
The central theme of my practice is the process of identity formation. I am less interested in the outcome than in the process itself: what forces shape us, what cracks the world leaves in us, and what images we mistake for ourselves. To me, identity is not a fixed structure but a constantly changing form, shaped under the pressure of time, environment, technology, fear, and desire.
That is why dreams appear so often in my work. A dream is a space of honest dialogue with the subconscious, where social masks fall away and something authentic emerges. For me, however, dreams are not merely a tool of psychoanalysis.They have become a reflection of the contemporary condition, in which the sense of reality is increasingly blurred. We live in a world where chaos and uncertainty have become the norm, where technology accelerates time and erases the boundary between the physical and the virtual. This affects the psyche, our sense of wholeness, and our ability to maintain a stable sense of self. In my work, the dream is both a refuge and a symptom.
Technique has never been an end in itself for me. I choose a medium only insofar as it is capable of conveying an idea. My artistic thinking was shaped during my studies at the institute, where I learned Russian lacquer miniature painting. This tradition, which emerged in the 18th century and is rooted in classical oil painting, demands absolute concentration and an extreme attention to detail. That precision and meditative quality have become an essential part of my visual language.
Later, this experience naturally migrated into the digital realm. Computer graphics, on the one hand, imitate physical materials, and on the other, open up fundamentally new possibilities. Today I work with digital painting, 3D, AI, and animation, combining artisanal attentiveness with experimentation. Technology both frightens and fascinates me-and it is precisely within this contradiction that I find the energy to create.
I live in a complex yet incredibly compelling time. Art is no longer required to choose between the “living” and the “artificial,” between tradition and algorithm. For me, technology is not a threat but a new language-a way to articulate ideas more precisely, to convey states more deeply, and to expand the boundaries of dialogue with the viewer.
My artistic credo is to search for a form for the elusive. To make visible what usually remains internal. To create images that do not offer ready-made answers, but instead initiate an inner process- doubt, recognition, and a dialogue with oneself.
