About Me:

                I grew up on the road (traveling with my parents), we are from a theatrical backround, a sort of gypsy circus if you will, but on a larger scale, traveling all over with our production “Slava’s Snow Show” ( just did broadway in december). So my whole life i was/am amazed and inspired by anything creative, from theater through fashion to furniture design. At this point of my life i decided that i want to continue my education in learning craft in making beautiful, strange, object, a sort of visual sculpture that invited people to use it, be its friend, and interactive sculpture thats not on a plinth and meant to just be watched, my installation work was about making an eviroment (an unfamiliar one) that would distract the guest from the outside world, clear its mind or clutter it maybe, depends on the person ofcourse. I enjoy all your work you did so far and would love to be part of the team in any way, to learn from you and your co-workers, or even contribut, even if its just by making tea and cleaning up, but am more than willing to get my hands dirty.

Will work hard for free, im thin so i dont take up much space, im also kind and dont swear :)
