2014–2018 → NeoPetersburg


This first and most extensive painting cycle spans different events and projects. It all began with the show NeoPetersburg in the local Name Gallery and ended with Stagings in the Moscow Museum of Modern Art. The cycle developed over the time of my teaching at the Academy and close collaboration with the art group Sever-7 (North-7).
