ABOUT / À PROPOS.
"MY ARTISTIC WORK EXPLORES THE NOTIONS OF DISPLACEMENT, WANDERING, AND THE PERPETUAL SEARCH FOR ONESELF IN THE WORLD. MY UNIVERSE IS INSPIRED BY SLAVIC CULTURE AND FOLKLORE, BY THE STORIES AND TRADITIONS RECOUNTED BY MY PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS. MY WORKS DEPICT MYSTICAL LANDSCAPES, IMBUED WITH NOSTALGIA, MEMORIES, DREAMS, AND CHILDHOOD FEARS THAT FOLLOW US INTO ADULTHOOD."

FIRST SOLO SHOW
MY HOUSE IS WHERE I PUT MY FEET
27 - 30 June 2024
17 rue Chapon, 75003 Paris
My first solo exhibition "My house is where I put my feet" was successfully held from June 27 to June 30, 2024 in Paris, at 17 rue Chapon, 75003. I'd love to thank everyone who could join me for this important event.
This exhibition marks the beginning of my artistic career.
“My house is where I put my feet” explores the themes of belonging, origins, and the search for oneself. Through self-portraits, mysterious landscapes, and portraits of my family members, I begin to write my story.
