TECHNIQUE steel COR-TEN and gold 23 carat on a wooden board. Beyond the meaning that the term Hic et Nunc has assumed historically and the concept that all our actions, memories, hopes happen here and now, in the immediacy of the present, my work also describes another thesis. In my work the Cor-Ten steel sector is a symbol of Here and Now as the silence and absolute calm in the void. Being here and now is consciously witnessing the occurrence of the scenarios that appear and progressively change in us. The True confronts us exactly at this moment, but immediately becomes an illusory past. It is the time of full consciousness and awareness. When man tries to grasp the past or is distracted by the illusory future, he strains in vain and stops feeling the world, he is distracted from awareness, from pure perception, where time does not exist. Time is the duration of the perception of something in space. Minutes, moments, hours are arbitrary divisions, an imagined time scale. Therefore, the rays in my work form a circle like a clock to describe past and future. The rays are engraved on the golden surface which symbolizes the ocean of divine light on which the life cycle of man is engraved.

My work is inspired by the ancient art of Orthodox icons reinterpreted in a contemporary way. I create abstract icons to access the deeper reality of the universe. The object of my art is the world of ideas - supernatural, eternal, infinite - and its relationship with the terrestrial world. My research has been dedicated to the relationship of the visible-invisible, the divine-human since the day I lived a mystical experience. In my work I use ancient techniques of the icons together with contemporary techniques. With pigments, photographs, tree bark, sand I represent the immanent world, with gold I describe the spiritual and transcendent world. Since adolescence, art has been a great passion of mine together with philosophy, theology and psychology. I have Russian origins and grew up in St. Petersburg. In 2006 I graduated in psychology and in 2011 I moved to Italy. I graduated with honors from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence and the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. In 2014 I specialized in Monumental Painting at the Repin University of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg. In 2016, I started attending the Byzantine iconology and iconography course at the International Association of Art and Spirituality Byzarticon in Rome, where I acquired the ancient techniques of icon painting and gilding.
