Inhale Follows Exhale |
Just like inhale follows exhale, day follows night. This is the endless movement of energy. The energy of the air flow drives the clockwork.
This is a 24-hour wall clock. Its idea is based on the Tao philosophy of the infinite movement of energy. One opposite flows into the other - Yin-Yang. Day and night. Inhalation and exhalation. At night we accumulate energy - inhale. During the day we realize it - exhale.
This process is depicted as the clock in the form of 24 air enemas. In the morning the enema is filled with air and gradually releases it during the day. By the beginning of the night, the enema is empty and now it gradually fills with air. This metaphorical movement of air activates the clockwork and we can know what stage the process is at.
With this work I wanted to show the importance of regular energy renewal and the value of time when we realize it.

art fish |
This is one of the assignments at the art academy - creating a signboard for the ceramics department. The shape of the fish appeared by accident when I rolled a piece of clay with a special machine. And then I wrote the name using various small objects: nails, springs, buttons and so on.

masala flavor |
In this work I tried to convey my associations with the aroma and taste of Indian Masala tea. I often brew this tea at home, using spices and milk. I love inhaling the heady aroma, watching the milk change the color of the black tea infused with spices. I love watching it boil, rising and falling, filling the air with magical warmth.

white to black and back again |
This is my experiment with white and black engobe. I applied them in two layers trying to create a graphic transition from one color to another using the grattage technique. I was inspired by Vassily Kandinsky's philosophical concept from his book "Point and Line on the Plane"

Idea! |
This unfolded box is a symbolic visualization of the movement of the creative process. This process begins with the birth of an idea. Then the artist sketches, thinks, trying to express the idea in the best possible way. The main stage is the creation of the artwork. The next stage is to show this work to the viewer and present it. And the final stage is communication with the viewer. Each of these stages corresponds to a facet of a sweep with a graphic pattern.
