Formal-reflexive mind. This is the first structure that can think not only about the world but also about thinking itself as such; thus, it is the first structure to be distinctly self-reflective and introspective

Through studying range forms as an enormous dinosaur, mammoths, and skeletons to stuffed animals and birds and a unique collection of insects I discovered the way I used to give the fight-or-flight response.

Lucid Dreams series represents itself as an anthology of dreams. Each work contains an unfolding
vision: a pictograph of a dream. The drawing is similar to the constant process of awareness of
yourself in a lucid dream. I see moving images above the paper and I’m catching them by
a stroke at the right moment. I neither draw small or full-size sketches nor do I need any
preparation. The sketch begins with a stroke or line and I let the picture unfold, to grow
as if the entire image has existed in embryonic form in the first line.

Currently, I am working on a project “Being a woman being me”. I create a series
of large-format works. On the one hand, this is my personal story, on the other
hand, every woman has come across similar issues, such as understanding her
femininity and masculinity, the roles imposed from childhood by parents and
throughout life by society, being conditioned by these roles, being conditioned
by psychological and physical trauma, etc. In my works, I want to explore
vulnerability and protection, understanding beauty in its non-conventional form,
the joy of the body, and its pain. My main goal is to guide myself, and further, the
viewer, through all these processes, to live them and transcend. I recognize the
woman in myself, but I am not only a woman, I accept my traumatic experience,
but I am more than this experience, I accept the pleasure and pain of my body,
but I am more than my body.
