I am an architect and sculptor from Kyiv, Ukraine. The material of my sculptures is metal wire, which is usually used to tie rebar on construction sites. It is a strong and malleable material, it perfectly holds its shape and is combined with the organicity of lines inherent in nature. My inspiration comes from nature and almost all my sculptures depict flora and fauna.
Before finding a wire sculpture for myself, I experimented a lot with different techniques and materials and their combinations. I used origami and papier-mâché techniques, materials like paper, clay, plastic, thread and fabrics. All my experiments were accompanied by black ballpoint pen sketches, my favorite drawing tool. When I use a pen to draw I'm reflecting my mood in a line style that also perfectly conveys the atmosphere of the object. That is why when I’m making sculptures I’m creating a harmony of lines that form into recognizable things.
