It always starts with a feeling, emotion, idea, not a particular medium. At least for me. Art is mirroring reality. Every person has their own particular reality they live in. Those realities can intersect, meet, collaborate but they remain separate in some way.
As most Russians from my generation, I grew up with culturally partly eastern parents who cosplay western society in their daily life. As a trans*man, I do not fully belong to womanhood or manhood. As someone with neurological and mental health issues, I bounce between critique of medical institutions and dependence on them. This polar slice of reality is the one I mirror.
Digging for complicated, contradictory feelings, emotions, ideas that can co-exist in one individual I try to translate them firstly into human language and then give them a vessel in a form of a poem, a painting, a sound fixed media piece, a performance, a song, an animated film, etc.
At the moment of writing this paragraph, my primary mediums are painting, drawing, experimental music, and sound art.
