Hackneyed Portraits with Roses

These are usual portraits with roses. I don’t think that portraits with petals of flowers have to be emotional and romantic. A gaze can be rude and straightforward. This photoshoot is a story of absurdity and stupidity of stereotypes. I have tried to deconstruct stereotypical beauty: there is a rosy surface and nothing else in the totally dark background. You can’t get through this shallow surface deeper and find the stronger idea behind it. I think that’s what absurdity looks like. This is its artistic expression.

Beauty of City Rush

The beauty of city rush. Craziness of the rush. Crazy rushers. Beautiful rushers. Busy rushers. Rushy rushers. The meaning of time stopping. Even if you are in New York.

New York in the motion. People, cars, streets, traffic, buildings - everything becomes fabric patterns and motifs. What are the colors and shapes of the city and rushiness? The elegance of motion turns into shimmering patterns which blend even more and more until they become a fabric for clothes and can be worn. In heavy traffic, you are in action and close distance is insufficient for scrutiny.

Suitcase Story: Sustainability

How much do you need? Are you still conscious about the future? Which ones would you take to the Wonderland? Will the clothes I am thinking to buy now be handed as heirlooms to the next generation?

Fashion, Symbols and Butterflying

A butterfly, though being trivially graceful and perfect, is one of the most distinctive symbols of both external and internal drama. What unusual dilemmas, problems and reflections occur while being in an unusual human and butterfly companionship which is very fragile, sensitive, impossible, temporary, but still protracted and bringing ideas?... Why, in the beginning of winter, do I want to spread and raise my wings so often? Why does the colorful butterfly settle down in our room only then? Why do we sometimes want to wear clothes that are decorated with butterflies? The recent experience, when the butterfly proudly lived with us last week, was exciting. After all the butterfly is a prophet of changes and transformation. Sometimes it takes a long time to realize the meaning of things, as they seem banal at the first sight…

Bathroom, Religion and Stained Glass

Are religious dogma still heavily persecuting us in our private lives? What is going on when we close our bedroom or bathroom door? What do we believe in at that moment? The church and its dogma still do not remain on the sidelines, even though people are living without religion, hiding themselves in the wonderland of stained glass. How are people replacing it? How are people looking for recognition? What are they buying? How are they seeking recognition in a particular group? What things do people feel they deserve to get, wear, have? Does fashion offer philosophy that substitutes religion? Does fashion strengthen, comfort, exalt the man? The mirror remains the only which is the witness of certainty and clarity, the reflection of truth, the face of reality.

Weird Masquerade

While discussing about future of sustainable fashion requires strong coffee for an all night long discussion… What about my clothes? Could they last for multiple seasons? Are they made of natural materials? How to wear them in an environment-friendly way? Drinking coffee is still a ritual to be surrounded by people and to look for new trends. How to dress and what to think today? Vintage dress, new shoes, designer ring, dress from a high street fashion shop, hat from fashion museum - what a weird masquerade is over there! More coffee, please, we should talk again about fashion. All night long.

Shadows and Lights Matter

Looking for trends: they arise from ancient, dark halls, everytime illuminating them with extraordinary lights.

Tasting Your Own Style

To feel the meaning, to be glad to be with other people and to get the latest fashion trends. While there are lots of fashion experts, thoughts, great fashion blogs, inspiring fashion magazines, sources of information, it becomes more difficult to be yourself, to create your own style, to pay more attention to yourself, to take a deeper look at yourself. You know: when the time will come, they will tell you what to buy, what and in what way to wear. Who will you be tomorrow? Who do you want to be? What message do you want to spread? What trend do you see in yourself?
