I was born in the USSR. Four months after I turned 16, and received a passport from the Soviet Union, this state ceased to exist and I became a citizen of the new Russia. In my roots there is half Tatar blood and half Russian blood. I have been living and working in Italy since 2015. My childhood was lived in the name of respect and love for different languages and cultures; for this reason I cultivate many interests and my curiosity has become a starting point in art. I appreciate good humor and treat myself with great self-irony. I have always passionately studied history, archeology and art history, and this can be seen in my works. I graduated in Theater Direction: I like to imagine and draw unusual stories, and storytelling and the construction of conflict constitute an important part of my pictorial interests.
I don't like identifying with styles and trends, art critics know how to do it better than me and for me.

in 2004 I graduated in Theater Direction at Kazan University of Cultures and Arts (Russia)
