120 x 100
A volcano of flowers sets the space ablaze, transforming chaos into bursts of light. Through a misted window, the explosion becomes a blooming, like a cry of color against the darkness.

120 x 100
Icy worlds, droplets suspended between water and ice. Like solitary spheres — near, yet unreachable. A cold silence after the storm.
2022 Oil painting on canvas
40 x 50
Evokes a childhood game, a playful construction where each piece finds its place. But here, the shapes dissolve, like a memory fading under the weight of time and trials. Between play and chaos, it reflects the loss of innocence in the face of personal and collective history.

30 X 40
Tetris II rises as a dreamlike reminiscence of the first: a gentle whim where childhood memories resurface — this time intact and luminous.
2023 Oil painting on canvas
60 x 70
A playful yet biting reflection on the commodification of sexuality in the digital age. Each numbered form evokes not just a body, but the reduction of intimacy to a countable conquest. In an era of swipes and matches, this painting turns the male-driven logic of “collecting” encounters into an ironic, visual inventory, exposing the absurdity beneath the surface of sexual consumerism.
2025 Oil painting on canvas
70 x 90
A bare tree rises towards a cottony sky. A few flowers, fragile yet tenacious, pierce the silence of emptiness. This painting speaks of rebirth, resilience, and the longing for beauty even when everything feels suspended.
2022 Oil painting on canvas
40 x 50
Evokes the quiet awakening of desire. Pink embodies softness and vulnerability, while darker tones whisper a silent strength; a masculine presence, withdrawn yet essential.
2024 Oil painting on canvas
50 x 60
In Crimea, the Cornus mas emerges among the rocks. As a child, I was deeply moved by the contrast between the fragility of this delicate, deciduous plant and the raw strength of the stones — immutable and silent. This canvas is a tribute to its scarlet fruits, symbols of inner resilience and the invisible strength of women.
