Perhaps the most quoted term when describing my collection called

Drawing is an integral part of my work, but at the same time it does not carry an important or defining technical part. A sketch is important to capture an idea and fix it physically. I start each of my projects by transferring the image in my head to paper, and after I attach it to the wall above my desk, I have no way back. I don't create a classic moodboard because I get my inspiration from books, so I look at this drawing on the wall and at the book left next to it every day to keep myself in the right mood. All these images exist only in my head, so in a way the end result is a surprise to me. So far, my gut has never failed me and I still give free rein to my hands.. Someone does not consider sketches an important component of the work, in a sense, today this approach is an atavism. But as I have said many times, my primary task is to create an artistic image that every detail obeys, and I recreate these details.. 

Everyone should have a place where you are not just safe and not just can be alone with yourself, but a place where you can hear your own inner voice and find peace. Your own sanctuary.. Every day I am looking forward to the moment when the sun goes down and illuminates my country studio with its golden rays. This is a place where I don't just work or read, but recharge my "batteries". A place where I am completely cut off from civilization. Every year I wait for the endless winter gloom to finally go away and I can come back here. Come back to devote myself to the garden, warmth and birdsong. Every year, these moments only become more fleeting and therefore even more valuable..

One of the most boring questions that can be asked in an interview, after the question about inspiration, is "what would you say to yourself if you went back in time?". And so, in my case, I would tell myself that you should not give up everything and start doing creative work right after school (as eventually happened), go and study to be a movie costume designer.. Perhaps then my creative career would have turned out quite differently and there would have been no brand called "Creative collaborator with the Devil". But despite the fact that this did not happen, fourteen years later I am working in exactly this concept and ideology, not just creating shoes and accessories, but telling stories with the help of artistic images, as if they were part of some movie. My latest eighth collection is no exception. I would like it to be something like the old American thrillers, full of primitive special effects and fake blood..

If my work had a soundtrack, it would definitely be baroque music. The sounds of
