BIOGRAPHY
Photo by Mario Pires
I spent my childhood as an average late 80s — early 90s kid in Russia, real adventurer: climbing trees, running everywhere, always with bruises and iodine on my knees. But I was also educated by the system in which we were told that we should put our feet on the ground and stop dreaming about art life path, because it will never happen, it's impossible to succeed because of the huge competition.
I suffer from migraines since I was 15, and it changed not only my physical, but also emotional state. I appreciate very much those times when I am free of pain, when I can think, create and live my life. Sure I am taking care of it, but I still have them.
I like sports connected with nature and adventure: climbing, hiking, canyoning, speleology. I still have bruises and iodine on my knees, so some things never change, and they shouldn't.
I have a bachelor degree in Management by ISEG, University of Lisbon and at this moment I am taking painting classes from Iryna Merzlenko Zeller.
I came to Lisbon from Vladivostok. I am not a rich girl or some genius. For everything I have accomplished in my life I had to fight. Nothing had fallen on my head from the sky. If something falls from the sky, as a rule, it's nothing good.
In art and life in general I fallow my instincts, and I took a long time to start trusting them. I ask myself, what feels right, at this exact moment. I think everyone has this talent, but not everyone listens to it.
I would like to make this world a bit better with my art, more shiny, more positive, more warm. I want to bring into this world some of my happiness, my positiveness and positive emotions.
I have always been a persistent dreamer, and throughout my life I have developed several projects in different fields, I have come a long way in the development of my life to finally come face to face with only my calling - writing.
Imaginary worlds and parallel lives that intersect in the infinity of universes. Thoughts, imagination and play are an integral part of my life. Try and plunge into my world...
