My artistic work was at its beginnings based on the Platonic tradition that art had to represent something. In Moscow (1991 - 1998)  I worked on abstract oil paintings that were meant to express my feelings about the world I lived in.

Later, while I stayed in Vienna, I produced and exhibited conceptual paintings, installations and objects, and I also made some artistic interventions in the urban life. I wanted my art to be an image of certain range of social and intellectual questions that haunted me.
