Mass Housing
The artwork reflects my research on Soviet and Russian cinema’s depiction of mass housing, tracing its evolution from symbols of progress in the ’60s to representations of poverty and violence in the ’90s. A melting film roll symbolizes time, shifts in perception, and societal control, culminating in a contemporary image of surveillance and fear in Russia.

Cherry Trees
“Cherry Trees” is a tribute to my grandmother, capturing shared moments of picking cherries and cooking together. Using acrylic sheets, the work plays with light to symbolize how memories shift over time. Layered visuals, changing hues, and a deliberate technical process explore the fragility and preservation of these fleeting moments.
