Visual storytelling in my artistic practise serves as a medium to perform my main designers task, structuring of the information, in a way that allows to design potentially novel contexts.
Sourced from my personal curiosity about semiotics, cultural nuances and themes of belonging and vulnerability, my practise aim to investigate phenomena of the complex modern socio- and geopolitical landscape - with recurrent, sometimes satirical references to political, ethnographic and naive motifs.

Globalisation is commonly known as a process of a worldwide integration and unification -  political, economical and cultural. One of its main signs is migration, that was caused not only by the Industrial Revolution (which is often considered as the beginning of the globalisation), but also by the terrific power imbalance and economical inequality that followed the beginning of XX century. Displacement led to the significant cultural exchange that continues to the present day. And displacement was the main inspiration for this publication.
­
This dossier is a collection of 6 self-written (mostly) articles that I consider interesting and unusual for deepening the understanding of such a complex process as globalisation and its impact on self-identification.

Publication was created with support of my beloved friends Ruth Brauchle and Viktar Hardziuk

Artist statement

Visual storytelling in my artistic practise serves as a medium to perform my main graphic designers task, structuring of the information, in a way that allows to design potentially novel contexts - by using media like sculpture, print, writing, title-giving and publishing.
Sourced from my personal interest in research and my curiosity about vernacular culture, cultural nuances as well as themes of belonging, vulnerability and self-help, my practise aim to investigate phenomena of the multiplex modern socio- and geopolitical landscape - with recurrent, sometimes satirical references to literature, and both scientific and naive motifs.
In my works I often use ceramics and self-made mineral glazes, which I see as a durable alternative for the delicate paper and as a physical manifestation of both clear thinking processes and vague suspense/unpredictability of the final result. I see the interaction of individual sculptures or their characteristics or history as an important part of broadening of my practise.

is a Dnipro-born (UA) and Nürnberg-based (DE) graphic designer and yet another visual artist.

Driven by exploration of symbolic forms, I seek to question and play with meanings given to these forms, objects, concepts and contexts.

Visual storytelling in my artistic practise serves as a medium to perform my main designers task, structuring the information, in a way that allows to evoke potentially novel experiences. Recurrent, sometimes satirical references to political, ethnographic and naive motifs are evoked by my personal experience and nearness to themes of self-identification and belonging.
