Artist statement:

For me the fundamental difference between photography and painting lies in three underpinnings of time characteristic of photographic images: fixation of a concrete moment, time-flow within the frame and the marks of natural wear on the physical printed form of the image and its texture.

I believe that the photographic process is a material essence for self-expression, like canvas or marble; it`s just one of the easiest ways to arrange some visual chaos around me, articulate the hidden harmony within us and share my feelings with others. Just feelings, not thoughts.

I like to call myself as a "photographic hooligan" attempting to walk along the boundaries of photographic art to get a feel for its edges.

My primary goal is to visualize the setting, not conceptualize it.
My favorite technique of late can be named "sliced panorama" and "linear walk-by-panorama" in which I am looking for ways to engage time and space.
