Photography entered my life in 2005 when I was 16, and became my sole passion. I immersed myself in countless hours within darkrooms and university studios, and wandered through the myriad theaters and museums of Moscow. In 2010, confronted with the reality that photography alone couldn't sustain me financially, I embraced the modern world through a career in marketing and analytics—a journey that led me from London to my current home in Melbourne, Australia.
In 2020, during the exhaustive COVID lockdowns, my passion for art was reignited as I rediscovered long-suppressed emotions. This period of isolation brought me to realization that, for me, art is essential for understanding and communicating with the world around and within myself.
Guided by intuition and rigorous self-reflection, my work delves into the facets of human emotion, exploring themes of isolation, and the profound influence of societal systems on individuals. I examine how structures around us shape our inner lives, often casting shadows over personal experiences. By choosing photographic film and Polaroid as my mediums, I capture tangible proofs of reality that underscore the complexities I explore.
My work has been featured in exhibitions such as Hand Made at the Melbourne Camera Club and the Passpartout exhibition in Rome, both in 2024. I am currently working on a series titled "Outer Melbourne," documenting the city's sprawling urban landscapes. You can view this work at https://outer.melbourne/.
