I share intimate family stories through photo books
I am a photo-based artist currently living in Hamburg, Germany. I was born in Norilsk, a mining city in Northern Siberia where my family lived for 20 years before migrating to Germany. I went to the U.S with a Fulbright and DAAD Scholarship to pursue my MFA at the SFAI in 2018. Mother Tongue has been shown in Deichtorhallen, Foam Museum and Fotografie Forum Frankfurt and will be shown at the Kunsthaus Hamburg in December. My works are part of several private collections in Europe, Asia and USA.
