Story & Message:
Every single thing in the world around can be perceived as marvelous if you unlearn everything you know about it and take a new perspective.
From my project “Kids in the Pool”:
Light, sparkles, fascination with what's in front of you in this very moment, and new hopes for the future. When something strikes you as interesting or beautiful, first live the experience. Like a child does. Without questions. Only then make attempts to understand and come up with "whys". The project was created "on the fly" when the artist, using her daughters as models, almost illegally got into a public pool in one of the major cities in Europe to capture the precious moments when we live our life fully experiencing a blend of joy, fear, amazement, curiosity, and rapture, all at the same time. Wouldn't life be more fun if we treated it as a pool welcoming us to play in it?
Available in sizes and editions:
41 x 50 cm (16.1 x 19.7 in.) - 4
82 x 100 cm (32.3 x 39.4 in.) - 4
My Style: Psychorealism
My works are a depiction of psychological and emotional states, whether existing or desired. So in this sense, I can’t call them surrealistic, as surrealism is based on dreams and unconscious, but rather "psychorealistic" or subjectively realistic.
The “realistic” part is very important to me. I want to make my images as believable as possible, therefore I like to keep little imperfections like wrinkles on clothes or wall cracks untouched, or should I say unre-touched.
At the same time, my goal is to surprise the viewer and make their jaws drop, simultaneously finding comfort, relief, and release in what they see.
I use the instruments of minimalism, reducing all the clutter, to make my works look sharper, more straightforward, and to the point. I want to give my audience a breath of fresh air when they look away from the messy, unstable, polluted, and chaotic real world and get into a clean, controlled, and calm reality, where it’s ok to be yourself. It’s like finding a psychological or (you can say “spiritual”) home.
What kind of feeling does it bring to your home?
Peace and tranquility. Strength and confidence. A grain of melancholy. With a bit of a whim, mystery, and fantasy. It will always be a gentle and quiet reminder that nothing is what it seems and you should always go deeper to perceive the true meaning.
How I work
I choose muted tones, strictly organized compositions, clean minimalistic spaces, and lots of symbolism to convey my ideas. Each visual story here has a definite plot but is always open to interpretation.
My Process
Each photo takes from 1 week to several months of planning and preparations: thinking through the story and the plot, planning the color scheme, sketching, scouting for locations, creating the props, choosing the suitable wardrobe, looking for the right makeup and hairstyle looks and then blending it all together. In some cases, a whole team is involved in the shooting process.
I never use stock imagery to create my art, I shoot all the details myself right there on location, so when everything is combined in the final piece the work looks as realistic as possible, no matter how surreal it might seem at a first glance.
Editing is a big part of the creative process, often the whole concept might change while I digitally develop the work. Editing is usually done after 2-3 months after the shooting has been done. This allows me to reevaluate and deepen my initial intentions and ideas.
