About Me

Russia Canadian. Lives and works in Toronto, Canada and St.Petersburg, Russia.
After retiring early from a 25 year career in rock music with «Auktyon» and other bands he began as a acrylicist.
Style: Abstract Expressionism. Why?
Because of emotions. It’s all in this particular moment. All your life. It’s like music improvisation. You need to say explain all life in one moment, in one phrase, in one white square… Emotion is relationship with others. My art is relationship with others too.

I feel liberated when create art. First, because I can escape this reality, and second, because I can produce something that is influence on somebody’s mood or state of mind. And I like it.

synesthetes* - The phrase synesthesia in art has historically referred to a wide variety of atits experiments that have explored the co-operation of the senses (e.g. seeing and hearing; the word synesthesia is from the Ancient Greek σύν (syn), "together," and αἴσθησις (aisthēsis), "sensation") in the genres of visual music, music visualization, audiovisual art, abstract film, and intermedia.
