I was honored to participate in a group show called Synthesis and Integration that was held from August 9 till September 6, 2013 in Moscow, Russia. The exhibition, which was part of the Faces & Laces Street Culture Show, featured works by both famous European and American artists, including Erosie, Mode 2, KR, and Stash, as well as local artists, including Alexey Luka and myself. I showcased a series of four plywood tile artworks, one of which was especially made for the show.

Faces and Laces 2011
13.06.2011
Recently I've created a series of six plywood artworks, which were exhibited last week at Faces and Laces Street Culture Show, Moscow. I've spent a month and a half working on them, and today I'd like to share some pics taken during the making of these works, as well as some photos from the exhibition.
As for the technique I used, first, I made vector images based on my sketches; carved all the details out of plywood using a scroll saw; then sandpapered and smoothed them. And finally I painted all the pieces and glued them together. Enjoy it!

Guys from Montana Cans invited me to take part in an exhibition and charity auction which was held in Mannheim, Germany at the end of July. The project called Kunstkraft took place at Studio Alte Feuerwache where four of my recent illustrations were printed and exhibited along with works by other artists. All the money raised from selling the artworks will go to children in Kenya.

Write The Future @ Faces and Laces
01.06.2010
The sculpture I created for Nike Write the Future advertising campaign was exhibited at the street culture group show called Faces and Laces, held in Moscow on May 21-22. I thought that combining 3D typographic elements, which I really like, with a replica of Moscow International Business Center will be a great idea because the latter has become a symbol of modern Russia and its future development. Since Write the Future is all about football, I decided to add a soccer ball which gave the sculpture the final touch. You will find some more photos from the show after the jump.

AnyForty Versus Exhibition
17.05.2010
Alan Warlde of AnyForty UK invited me to take part in the upcoming group show at Start the Bus Bristol art gallery. Al asked a bunch of designers and illustrators, who has already worked with him, to create an A3 poster for the show. After the 12 posters I made during the last month for the Faces and Laces show (which will be held in Moscow on 21-22 May) this seems to be a pretty relaxing thing to do. So I’m going to chill and enjoy creating this illustration.
The show at Start the Bus art gallery will last three days from June 11 till June 13. If you happen to be in Bristol in June, please drop by! I’ll post some pictures from the show after it’s over. Stay tuned!

I’m making a series of posters especially for the show, and I’ve participated in some exciting collaborations which will be displayed there as well. I’ll upload all my new works into my Portfolio after the show. If you happen to be in Moscow at the end of May, you are welcome to come around!
