BIOGRAPHY
I was born into a mining family in Karaganda.
From a young age, I harbored a desire to become a painter, and thanks to the unwavering support of my family, I was able to realize this dream.
Tales from both below and above ground, shared by my grandfather during my childhood, deeply influenced my artistic endeavors.

STATEMENT
In my work, I strive to create a provocative and kitschy visual world, where humor acts as the safety valve.
This attitude allows for a lighthearted approach to subjects and it infuses other ironies of life with a stimulating audacity, providing viewers with both amusement and insight.
