These works study human intervention in the environment; the structures are highlighted compositionally, emphasizing their alienness and raising the question of the conflict between human civilization and nature. Modern megaliths are like something out of a George Orwell novel. Lifeless structures put totalitarian pressure on the viewer, replacing the beauty of nature with the aesthetics of geometry and rhythm. The fog, like chaos, wants to dissolve what was created by the mind. Should we subjugate the space around us, or should we learn to live in harmony with the environment?

Bio
Young new author. Previously won video-related competitions as a student, Microsoft Imagine Cup in NY. I study contemporary art and I’m sure I have something new to say to the world. My work is dominated by invisible anxiety, which I comprehend and sublimate. I will devote the next 10 years to a wide range of contemporary art practices, exploring social themes and various media. For now, however, let me start with a photograph. Thank you
