I finished the Belarusian art school in Minsk for future artists. Painters, writers, art critics, sculptors come from this national school. During seven years I learned painting, drawing, the rules of composition, the history of Fine Arts from all over the world. I also did linguistic and legal studies at the University of Minsk.

It turns out that I have a great manual predisposition that allows me to feel the volumes and space, to translate my emotions into the material. For me, natural shapes play a crucial role in my imagination, they encourage me to think about the materials I use. Nevertheless, I often make significant changes to the original shapes so that I can exalt reality.

So, I open up the simple lines to make them even more expressive. In my sculptures, everything is important: the details, the richness of the textures, the pictoriality, the material and the patina participate in the balance and delicacy of my works.

I prefer bronze, because the bronze sculpture concentrates quite diverse elements: fire, metal, water, earth… and most important - a very particular element -, the energy of creation, without for all that, to postpone experimentation with contemporary materials, such as epoxy resin or reconstituted stone.

My universe is inhabited by animals and characters, made with irony, each with its own particular character.

I want to create to reveal the world of Images to viewers. In order, in the diversity of this world, that each one finds himself close to himself. Inspired by the world around us, literature, history, nature even by ordinary objects, I pursue my creation and I remain productive, perfectionist, so as to always progress and surpass myself.
