I am a conceptual artist in contemporary art and a film director, dedicated to exploring the themes of psychology and interpersonal relationships.
My knowledge in contemporary art was cultivated at the British Higher School of Design under the guidance of Mikhail Levin. Inspiration often arises from everyday life, infusing the ordinary with a surrealistic touch. My diverse intellectual background in contemporary art, mathematics, and psychology contributes to shaping a unique style in conceptual and contemporary art.
Studying directing and editing under the mentorship of Sergei Ivanov, a collaborator with Alexander Sokurov, at the Moscow School of New Cinema, has significantly enriched my artistic journey. This experience has added depth to my exploration of the human psyche and storytelling in both conceptual art and filmmaking.
My video art and art installations, including large-scale works, have gained recognition at exhibitions in Russia and Serbia. Furthermore, my original conceptual films, influenced by my cinematic education, are showcased at festivals worldwide, demonstrating their distinctiveness and impact. Working across various mediums, including authorial cinema, video art, and installations, I aim to push the boundaries of expression in art.
