About
I work for editorial and corporate clients and pursue personal projects with a documentary approach.
My work has been shown in numerous exhibitions in Switzerland and abroad, including France, Russia, Germany and England. As part of my photographic practice, I self-published several magazines and newspapers. My first monograph, «Mikhailovna Called» was presented in 2018.
I make photographs for corporate clients, architects, magazines, museums, state organizations and NGOs to name only a few. I am available for assignments.
If you are interested in purchasing a signed and numbered print, a book or a magazine, please feel free to contact me.
