Sketch of a man leaning his head Drawing

I am a practicing architect, and now looking back at some of the earlier studies that shaped my understanding of space, the movement of bodies in space, and my later interest in contemporary dance. I was born in Moscow and came to Canada when I was ten. I think I saw the world from a different side which made me more attentive to it. I enjoyed drawing and working as a theatre make-up artist - drawing directly on the body and transforming it. Twenty years later, I moved again, this time to London, England. I continued working in architecture and in parallel discovered the beauty of dance as a medium of composing form and capturing the fragility of the body. Another ten years later I moved again to Canada. I have always felt that time moves along an expanding spiral.
