Visual Dyslexia
The cycle of Visual Dyslexia unites motives crafted with childlike curiosity, striving to capture facets of the physical world and transforming into a space of focused mind—a cloud of intuitive and playful documentation. Fragmented lines, scattered compositions, and organic shapes evoke memories of the micro and macrocosm.
“By copying the observed and building the mirror of our own perception we learn to see certain parts of the world through a drawing. It takes a while to put into practice. We want it to look natural, but usually, all we get is some pale copy. You were planning to depict some particular thing, but your hand happened to slip and you got an absolutely different result. But this different thing, does it mean that you made a mistake or that you saw something they had asked you to ignore? Does a misreading mean wrong perception? Why are we made to read only those letters which are visible? Is it forbidden to read between the lines, to read what is left behind the brackets?”
ATLAS
We try to figure out how to bring everything together in a certain system. There must be some general rules, something that works as a part of the whole system. I think I have discovered a relationship. It may not be immediately visible, but I will try to explain. No, no, not there, on the other side. Wait a minute.
Spirals, Grids, Scales
…the unseen movement of pattern energy on a surface can be made tangible through the use of visual guides. The set of drawings presented in this section embodies this concept, exposing an interplay between the visible and invisible realms. An attempt of documenting the invisible forces that shape our world. The patterns and forms within the artworks contain a shadow of movement, suggesting constant flux and transformation.
Alchemy, Pilots, Anthills
A series of drawings combine images of spaceship pilots, various alchemical vessels and mechanisms, star systems, galaxy lights, technological blueprints, and drawings of somewhat anthills. Naive and expressionist looking aesthetic of the images remind about the dynamic fabric of time and events captured with the method of sketching.
Silhouettes of Drawings
This series combines elements reminiscent of scientific diagrams and cave paintings, with black cardboard cutouts hung on the wall like an unstable breathing collection of insects. Linear cutouts articulate the ephemeral nature of arranged and documented reasonings, torned off the surface of someones notepad. Through layered and sometimes recognizable motifs, the infinite composition of the material manifests a visionary perspective of a cloud-shaped arrangement of thoughts.
Structures and Buildings
Drawings of various structures and mechanisms, with the structure of an illustration of a medieval alchemical book. Placed in the context of a standardized design sheet and executed in the manner of freehand drawing.
Hands and Symbols
Hand drawn designs, symbols and patterns that can represent a variety of meanings: cultural distinctions, personal expression, spiritual meanings or even abstract art.
Heads and Thoughts
A series of drawings over an image of a person. Diagrams, signs and connecting objects cover the head of the human model. In this way the tension and direction of attention is visualized.
Cards with Motives
A series of drawings made on individual rectangular sheets of heavy white paper. Each sheet contains a fragment of an image, scheme, pattern.
Various Drawings
A series of disparate drawings from 2014-2024. Done on materials of varying quality, size and shape, together they come together to form a unified collection of representations of dust, nature, power lines, and the dance of air currents. On-Going.

Above the Surface
Every movement, even the most imperceptible one, leaves traces in space. A drawing, for example, being a trace of thought, also has a sound of its manifestation. listen to one of such fragments of the documentation of the movement of a drawing tool on the surface of the paper.
Sound of the Drawing
Video
Once The Ant Climbed Into Astronaut’s Ear
Look how drawings are working together when they are melted in an endless slideshow. The sound of the neverending frame switch forces your imagination and tickles your eyes. Is the drawing that much different from the image? How the unknown story appears in the back of your mind?
Video
Particle Studies: Motion
A hand-drawn sequence of particle movement and continuous looped evolution reveal the graceful dance of particles as they interact, collide, and transform. Through moving strokes, the video displays the essence of rendering abstract concepts tangible. Deeper research on particles and time-based distortions is available within “Material” section.
Context
Drawing Room
A hall with drawings in the form of a site-specific installation. A series of graphics from different cycles are linked together with found documentary images and illustrations from external libraries. A room covered in an arrangement of sheets is transformed into a three-dimensional notebook, a sketchbook, or an overflowing desk drawer. First time exhibited at GROUND Gallery (2018).
Context
Drawing Studies: Particles on a Plane
An insightful exploration of graphical expressions intersecting with scientific concepts. The video unveils the beauty of the moment through naive drawings, showcasing the dynamic interactions of subatomic particles within a two-dimensional realm. The fusion of methods invites viewers to appreciate the creative bridges that unite seemingly disparate domains.
