Transaction types: Memory, Time.
Excavating the Unfinished (2000–2011) to Rewrite the Future
This body of work delves into my pre-transaction era—a raw, instinctive period (2000–2011) before the crystallization of my Transaction Art Universe. These early experiments in collage, pastel, and performance reels are artifacts of a subconscious dialogue: unpolished, emotionally charged, and untethered from later frameworks.

Like fragments of a half-remembered dream, the series oscillates between nostalgia and prophecy. The ⏳ and ◐ symbols—recurring motifs—serve as portals, suggesting time’s malleability. Here, the past isn’t static; it’s a mutable archive (#TransactionArtUniverse) waiting to be decoded, altered, or resurrected.

《TRANSACTION ALPHABET》

Transaction Type: Personal Belongings
Description:
This piece is part of the Transaction Art series, exploring the fragile legacy of modern existence. Unlike the grand tombs of pharaohs or enduring cave paintings, our era leaves behind ephemeral fragments—discarded clothes, obsolete gadgets, forgotten social media pages, half-empty cups of coffee.

"All that remains after you - {$M}" (2019) questions the value of what we leave behind. In a world of rapid obsolescence, personal artifacts lose meaning faster than they accumulate history. A cracked phone screen, a faded receipt, a lone shoe—these are the new relics, the accidental archaeology of a disposable age.

FIGURES COLLECTION (2012–Present) 
The Body as Living Ledger 
Photographic Sculptures of the Human Form

This striking series presents the human body as a sculptural object, captured through meticulously composed photography. Each work transforms flesh into what appears to be carved matter, where living subjects become monumental forms frozen in time.

Figures collection: different versions

Transaction's type: Ancestors' voice from Mona Lisa to Feminism. The main character of the series is like a cufflink, passed from a tyrannical father to a sadistic husband.

Similarly, the Mona Lisa serves as the Louvre's cufflink—a replicated image that has undergone one of the most significant transformations in history.

Feminism, too, can be seen as a cufflink of freedom. It began as a movement to liberate women from ignorance and oppression but has, in some cases, evolved into a shield used to justify cruelty in the pursuit of personal ambitions.

Cufflinks - {$M}

The heroes of the transaction world - living and dead, people and animals, - are deprived of Transaction codes, like mirrors, they absorb and reflect everything that happens in the "black mirror". They are extras and observers, they are the children of the Transaction, they are hidden faces. - {$M}

This is "Toy boy, toy girl" from 2015

Toy Boy, Toy Girl

Transaction's type: animals. 
The main heroes of the Transaction Art world are people with hidden faces and strange animals.
Transaction’s Eggs: a whole egg becomes the head of a persons with hidden faces: balancing between the the living world with the world of the dead, having the form of a
hologram, but a split egg gives birth to a beast.

Animals

For a decade, I lived with memory loss. My family insisted the photographs were mine—and eventually, I believed them. Slowly, I began reconstructing the missing decades of my life through the prism of others’ recollections.

Abstract

Botany

This series embraces the unfiltered creativity of rapid sketches and the chaotic charm of children’s mark-making. Layers of hurried lines, doodles, and naive forms collide to explore play.

Like artifacts from a child’s imagination or fragments of half-remembered dreams, these works reject polished precision in favor of energy, freedom, and accidental poetry. Scribbles become secret maps; stick figures morph into mythic characters. The result is a visual language that feels instinctive and coded, inviting viewers to decode their meanings.
