Born in Helsinki to a Finnish-Russian family, I grew up between two cultures—Scandinavian minimalism and the rich figurative traditions of St. Petersburg. My artistic path began with classical sculpture (Repin Academy of Arts) and music (cello, double bass), disciplines that taught me rhythm, precision, and depth.

In 2022, I returned to Helsinki, where the freedom of the local art scene pushed me to explore beyond academic boundaries. Since 2024, I’ve focused on ceramics, blending Scandinavian craft with expressive figurative forms. My work is a dialogue between strict training and intuitive experimentation—between the past I carry and the future I shape with clay.
