«The most important thing for me as an artist is to create a mood for the viewer, to help him capture the moment. Create an environment, a reason for thought with a picture.
The plots of my work were found in exceptional circumstances rather than in everyday life. It is idleness, music and flowers. Femininity and fragility intertwine with the dark, mysterious noir motives.
The theme of the search for harmony is always present in my works, I try to emphasize this with a restrained, deep color scheme.»
