Memory

Memory is not merely a reflection of the past; it is the invisible force that shapes the core of who we are.

What we remember is not always what happened, but what we choose to remember becomes the truth we live by, subtly defining our sense of self. A single moment—like the scent of rain on a quiet walk—can transcend time, remaining etched in the mind as a lasting impression.

These fragments, delicate and transient, become the threads that weave together our identity. In the fluidity of memory, we discover a deeper connection to our existence, ever shifting, yet intimately familiar.

I’m a visual artist from Moscow. I like transforming my dreams and my memories into films.

I work a lot with analogue techniques—printing, layering, reshooting, and processing materials—to create unique textures and experiment with image. I’m always looking for new ways to approach storytelling and enjoy collaborating with others who are interested in visual experimentation. Whether it’s film, mixed media, or something in between, I love exploring how different techniques can help to convey the feeling.
