About

I was born in Naberezhnye Chelny, a small city in Tatarstan, where my passion for drawing was encouraged from a young age. I spent years in art clubs and creative programs, eventually studying at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Moscow. I also completed a course in art valuation at Plekhanov University and attended Sotheby’s Institute of Art.

 

Moving to the U.S. in 2018 shifted everything for me. It gave me the freedom to fully express the kind of art I had always dreamed of—honest, bold, emotional. Today, I live and work in Miami, where I create minimalist paintings that explore themes like self-reflection, gender identity, psychology, and environmental awareness.

 

My signature style combines delicate outlines, vibrant lime green, and fragmented human forms—often legs, profiles, or hands. I work primarily with acrylics on canvas, using color and composition to build tension between vulnerability and strength.

 

Many of my pieces are part of ongoing series. For example, Dialogue focuses on societal expectations and stereotypes around women, using only legs to tell the story—without faces, without words.

 

Through my work, I reflect on freedom, identity, and the quiet resilience that lives in emotion. Painting is my way of asking questions I don’t always have answers to—but I invite the viewer to ask them with me.
