About the Item

This is a 2022-2024 development on my signature collection, Migration - oversized clouds I started making in 2016. The subject has shifted towards more romantic development. It's a metaphor to a couple and my ideals of a relationship in the current turbulent times. Fragility yet resilience of a graceful paper planes (white semi abstract elements in the centre of the artwork). Carrying a portion of infantilism and adventure, determined with a great degree of an optimism. This relatively new reiteration of my main body of work is a balance or darkness and light, much like in relationship. There is no absolute. Plenty of challenge and underlying uncertainty. Cloud is ever changing but the rainy day always followed by clear sky. This is how I see two people going through life. Watching over each other shoulder. On similar paths. Sharing trajectory. Ultimately heading towards the light (because I am an optimist deep underneath my skin of a realist) I want to fill my canvas with aspiration, with light, with warmth With sense of belonging, with focus on love that is both strong and fragile.

She draws beauty in her surroundings and not afraid to venturing out to explore new directions. Drawings, oil painting, watercolour on paper and canvas, her varied work is seamlessly united by a distinct flow and unmistakably unique elegance. I was born in Kazakhstan (Aktau) on the shores of the Caspian Sea in a small oily town in the middle of the desert. Spent most of my happy childhood summers in leafy North Kazakhstan (Shuchinsk) at grand mother's farm house, foraging in the forest, swimming in the lakes and looking after animals. Later in life my parents (both engineers) chose for me to go study Law driven by prestige of the occupation. Art classes was a parallel activity during my school years since the age of 10 and despite high praising from the teachers art was dismissed as a career direction due to being unpractical. I have then spent 15 years in quasi legal career in banking, oil and gas, private clients and consulting industries both in Kazakhstan and the UK before one day deciding to abandon the office all together to give myself a chance to become a serious artist. The subject matter is often to lift the weight of existence and find a thread that pulls you forward to evolve and change yourself or your attitude towards challenging circumstances in life. ​Inspiration comes within. The final outcome of the artwork is often uncertain. Where do you draw a last line is existential to every piece I consider finished. It starts with need to lock myself in the studio room and find way to the outer places within.
