Video artist and curator born in Moscow in 1979. Lives and works in Moscow. Has MA in linguistics. Studied art history at the Institute of Art Business and Antiques (Moscow) and fine arts at the School of Contemporary Art "Free Workshops" (Moscow).

In her works the artist simulates atemporal reality by means of improvisation, free camera movement, rapid changes of scene without any attempt at unity. Natalia is also involved in routine studies, aesthetic revaluation of the everyday.
