About Me

ABOUT ME

I am 30 years old russian artist and scientist,
I used to study climate of the past in Arctic region, spent a year in total in Arctic expeditions. Now I am doing illustrations, ceramics and tattoo (and playing my ukulele when I am sad).

I have left Russia in June of 2021 and didn’t come back there because of the war in Ukraine, now I am trying to find my place in the world and travel while I am looking for it.

Would be happy to meet people who care about art, music, nature, politics and beauty of life, love to share my experience and knowledge with people and learn from them too

Music, Movies, and Books

From music I love lofi, garage, postpunk, psychedelic and electronic music, but I sing old pop songs hah
As many Russian people of my generation, I love independent European movies, but I can enjoy various movies janres
I love reading, can talk a lot about Russian literature, would like to know more about South American authors

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I ruled a tanker for 15 minutes. But it is just a funny fact, the most interesting part that I spent one month on this tanker in the Arctic Ocean

I also may paint something nice for you, make tattoo, ceramics, sing or tell about complicated political reality of Russia these days
