ABOUT ME

I'm a conteporary artist, and I specialize in photography. What I enjoy about it the most, is that you work directly with peoples memories, and I prefer to think of photography as a kind of social studies. Well, actually I prefer to think about everything as a kind of))) even living itself. And I like it a lot)
It's somewhat hard to think of something I do not enjoy... boiled eggs, probably. But even those can be fascinating from some undiscovered point of view)

I like to travel, and like to meet people, and get to know them, and talking is one of my favourite ways to spend the evening - as well as taking pictures, reading something, and getting away from the city)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm generally interested in film history, so Fritz Lang, Antoniony, Hitchcock, Karwai, Greenaway films, Deadman, Last tango in Paris, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead, musicals, soviet films of the 30s, no way I can list all of them)
Julio Cortazar, Heinrich Böll, Kurt Vonnegut and Akutagawa are probably my favoutite writers, and
as for music, thanks god, I understand nothing about it and just listen to what I like) that can be Gogol Bordello and Tiger lillies or Devendra Banhart or Kaiser chiefs and Kasabian or the Clash and Bad religion. Ah. Einstürzende Neubauten probably a bit more often.
