She was born in 1977.
Until 2000, she studied at the Moscow State Textile University, specializing in an artist-stylist.
Since 2005, she has been a member of the Moscow Union of Artists. Katya participated in many group and solo exhibitions, including special projects within the framework of the 5th and 6th Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art.
Her works are in the collections of the Zverev Center for Contemporary Art, the Kultproekt Gallery, the Open Club Gallery, the Leonid Shishkin Gallery, the Pioneer Gallery, in private collections in Russia, England, Austria, France, Germany and the USA.
In her art, Katya turns to neo-Romanticism as one of the foundations of metamodernism or a new sincerity. She builds new stories, inviting the viewer into her own visual worlds, where a synthesis of the miracle of human capabilities and the wonders of science is possible.
"I often feel like a spy, collecting information on the border of two fields of knowledge, discovering new relationships between art and science. Driven by curiosity, I often dive into unexplored areas, not really knowing exactly how it happened," says Katya.
The meanings of the works lie between the enthusiasm of modernism and postmodern ridicule, between hope and melancholy, between simplicity and awareness, romanticism and pragmatism, empathy and apathy, unity and multitude, wholeness and splitting, clarity and ambiguity... It is the broken logic of the absurd that makes it possible to speak out in a new way, to rid the viewer of perception patterns. At the junction of the conscious and the unconscious, in the aesthetics of surrealism, we see the keys to understanding what is happening. In search of the truth, but not expecting to find it. As Schlegel said, "always in the making, never in perfection."
She lives and works in Moscow.
