Biography
It is important for me to convey the feeling of the dissolution of the individual in the information flow, and I build my aesthetics under the impression of the era of virtual reality. I am interested in the emotional content of the drama of our time: high technology, the defenselessness of a person “in the network”, socio-cultural and internal contradictions. The internal conflict of the individual and the external one, when we are faced with the need to interact with society.
In my works I combine realism with elements of symbolism, I mainly work in the classical technique of oil painting, but sometimes the choice of medium may depend on the task, and in order to emphasize it, I can choose a more suitable material.
I live and work in Samara. She received her higher education in engineering. In 2015 she graduated from the Samara Art College named after K.S. Petrov-Vodkin. I am a member of the Union of Artists of Russia.
