I always wanted to paint, but never made time for it. Recently I’ve resigned from my international business career to pursue my dream of painting.
In my paintings I explore different themes which are personally important to me. Right now – in the shadows of the war in Ukraine – I am exploring the collective memory of the past Soviet regime through the lens of my own childhood experiences. My autobiographic painting series Occupational Childhood has recently been exhibited at Copenhagen Drawing Academy, Top Danmark and more exhibitions are planned throughout 2023.
I am also a very spontaneous and intuitive painter. I see – feel – sense beauty in all what´s around me, and I want to express it with the help of my brushes and colors. Do you notice the beauty of Now in the nature – Summer or Winter? Or – beauty in people and their emotions – happy or sad? Let me invite you to stop, sense and observe the beauty of life – all around us, which I am daily inspired to express in my spontaneous paintings.
