"Without love we are birds with broken wings" Print

Internationally exhibited self-taught fine art photographer with Russian roots. Now I am living and creating in the small city Neumuesnter in North Germany. My photography journey began at the age of 19. That was the time when my family passed away and I realized in that moment that life is too short to do things that you don’t love. So I quit my university in Russia where I was studying political science before which I didn’t enjoy and came to Europe to follow this new philosophy and study art. Art helped me a lot to heal my inner wounds from the past and made me a better person. In my photography I raise topics that are important to me. I talk with the viewer about fear, loneliness, negativity, love, etc. And it helps me to improve myself. It is the best psychologist there is. I get inspired from the nature and the world around us. My best ideas came to me while walking in the mountains or sitting next to a beautiful lake. My work has been previously exhibited in the galleries in New York, London, Berlin, Athens, Rotterdam, The Hague, Abcoude and Amersfoort.
