I am a multimedia artist and music producer, currently based in London. I work with music, video, performance, movement, writing and creative coding.
I have experience in teaching, composing, performing, workshop facilitation and personal assistance.
I have a creative and technological background, and speak multiple languages, including English and Russian (fluent). I love learning and am able to pick up or teach myself new skills quickly. I enjoy being challenged and problem-solving.
I'm interested in creating immersive experiences, be it through multimedia performances and installations, or simply through electronic music - I seek to take audiences on a journey through stimulating the senses, to offer opportunities for reflection and new perspectives.
I seek to build on my knowledge in film, animation, VR and 3D modelling to create digital worlds and facilitate crossmedia storytelling.
I'm looking for creative opportunities in fields such as music, film, theatre, performance art, and technology, where my voice and experience are valued.
I am open to collaborations, and expanding my field of knowledge, for example cross-discipline projects that involve technology, science and art.

XIDALIA is a multimedia performance that explores a post-apocalyptic vision of the future, told through song and projected visuals. Sonically ranging from trance-inducing music, to electronic music, to soul; visually including coded animations and video footage processed through code, performance is used as an umbrella term to host many parts that together tell a story through emotion.

"Gesture" is a performance/video of an electronic composition, meandering through moods and genres. It was presented for the first time as part of a live streamed event, Digital Slip, by the art collective Double Okay.
