I am a photo artist who works in the style of surrealism. My art is filled with magic and fairy-tale elements, but behind every fairy tale lies a fragment of truth that reflects life. In my work, I strive to capture and convey moments of emotion, evoking associations that allow viewers to immerse themselves in a world of fantasy while feeling a deep connection to reality.
My projects are non-commercial, and I take on all the work myself. I sew the costumes, carefully select the locations, take the photographs, and edit the images. In the editing process, I often collaborate with artificial intelligence, especially when I can't capture my ideas live. This allows me to add elements to the images that go beyond reality, creating even more captivating surrealistic compositions.
The projects presented here are some of the first in my creative journey, as I only started photography three years ago when I enrolled at the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts. Despite being new to the field, I hope to stay in it for a long time and continue developing as a photo artist, exploring new horizons in my creativity and experimenting with different techniques and approaches. My goal is to create works that resonate with viewers, captivate their imagination, and leave an unforgettable impression in their hearts.
While photography is a core part of my work, my practice extends into other disciplines such as sculpture, installations, and painting. I am driven by an interdisciplinary approach that allows me to explore complex themes through diverse materials and forms.
