Vladislava Stolbikova

I’m a digital artist and illustrator whose work explores identity, emotion, and transformation through surreal and symbolic imagery. My art reflects the fragile balance between self-expression and societal expectations, often blending realism with dreamlike abstraction. Each piece is a visual meditation on what it means to rebuild oneself — emotionally, culturally, and spiritually.
