I was born in 1994 in Kyiv, Ukraine; studied piano and singing at the music school, with John Cage's "In a Landscape" as the last learned piece. When finishing school I got introduced into performance art by Janusz Baldyga, and decided to postpone getting higher education and instead take workshops in performance art, physical theater, extended vocal technics and Butoh. Since 2018 I live and work between Ukraine and EU.
My main subjects of research are animal ethics, time and intimacy.
