Pareidolia Collage

Born in Kharkov, Ukraine. From the very childhood I didn’t part with paints and pencils, even school desks became my canvases. It was not possible to enter the Art University, because my family was poor. Then I decided to study as a hairdresser and this profession completely changed my life and the life of my family. I became a successful stylist, moved to Moscow, studied in London and became a teacher at the TONI&GUY Academy of Hairdressing. But in my career as a stylist, I never parted with the camera, shooting fashion, travel, portraits, creating digital and analog collages. Over time, my hobby captured me much more than my main profession and I realized that this is what gives me a feeling of endless reality, at the moment of creating a collage, painting or photography, I especially vividly experience the meditative presence, the illusory nature of everything, and in this I dissolve in order to create.
