The study of architecture, ancient writing, and archaic consciousness has had a major influence on her artistic methods. In her works, she studies the influence of technologies on views of the world, addresses pre-verbal experience, and searches for spatial approaches in the conveying of narrative. Evgenia's works invite the viewer to assemble their narrative of the proposed materials. The artistic method is based on a specifically developed attitude to the space, the importance of the symbol, and the signification system. She enters into a dialogue with the cultural tradition.
