Depiction of the aftermath of the Russian aggression against Ukraine, which, at its core, tells a story of everyone who had to face the fragility of their safe space, and discover that the invincible home lies within.
What does a home feel like? Is it the smell of a homemade meal on the table, the sound of a cat purring in your lap? Using mixed reality with meticulous care, Fragile Home transforms an anonymous space into a warm, cozy household of a Ukrainian family. The viewers are invited to take things at their own pace, allowing them to explore the environment with curiosity and connect to the non-present inhabitants through picking up their photos on the wall or reading their birthday cards. However, while exploring their home, something sinister starts to happen.

Melancholy of the Outer Limits
The exhibition Melancholy of the Outer Limits presents, for the first time in its entirety, an extensive body of paintings created over the last ten years. Filled with faceless people lost in the ruins of cities, these paintings are a mirror of the artist's own soul.
Point of View: Identity
Another instalment of the long-term project, which combines the format of an exhibition and a classroom and focuses on the theme of human identity. Who am I? What am I? The human form naturally takes centre stage; the body, its clothing, its behaviour. A person's identity and the different ways of looking at it.
