I’m a multidisciplinary artist born in the USSR and now based in the United States. My work is rooted in the intersection of personal memory and historical context—how individual stories echo, absorb, and resist the pressures of larger political forces. I’m especially drawn to how people endure hard times and reassemble themselves with new strength and clarity. These themes, drawn from my own family’s experiences through the upheavals of Russian history, continue to shape my artistic vision.

I work across sculpture, collage, and photography. My modular concrete sculptures reflect the process of rebuilding the self—solid yet shaped by the fractures of experience. My paper collages speak to the fragility of lives shaped by displacement and uncertainty. Photography, my first medium, continues to inform my approach to composition, layering, and narrative across all materials.
