a new film about fears
"The End of the light" or "Конец света",
22 min., Zürich 2009
The end of the world in the Russian language sounds as „The end of the Light“("Конец света")
Darkness is the absence of light and presence of evil shadows and depression
The fear of darkness (the end of life or the end of the light) is one of the basic fears , which everyone felt some when during his life.

"SUNNY FROM INSIDE TO OUTSIDE"Zürich,2006
the film about perseption of beauty.
Taken from the Greek mythology: The Charites, the followers of Aphrodite* Charisma (in my meaning) is the thing which we see as a beauty in people. That is not really connected with the features of the appearance like (a certain form of the nose or the length of the feet or the size of the breast and so on). Charisma is the ability to charm other people and somehow to convince them that you are beautiful. This is almost a mystic thing which is difficult to explain or categorise. [in German there is an expression ªbecircen/bezirzen´ stemming from the Greek enchantress ªCirce´ - auf verf¸hrerische Weise f¸r sich gewinnen, to win someone over in a seductive manner, to bewitch, to enchant] ------------- According to the legend the Olympic fire (the Godly fire) was stolen from the Greek Gods and given to the people on Earth. It's still symbolizing the beautiful and talented people (beauty and talent are the gifts, people with these qualities are gifted by ªthe fire´ of the Gods). -
City intervention, Zürch, 2007
Kunstaktion”Mehr Plakatfläche für Kunst”
The intervention was based on the current imbalance of public (free space for art posters and commercial posters that overruled the city’s walls and poster areas.
This nightly guerilla art attack was made as an attempt to improve the aesthetics of other commercialized city and environment.
The idea was to use the same visual language as in the commercial posters (graphic compositions, drawings, photos), so that the people, waling in the street don’t notice immediately that it’s something else. Just after a while one can realize that this poster is to promoting any product.
