    Silver in Fine Art / Collage

Each collage in the project is small pieces of everyday things, the combination of which creates unexpected stories. Bus stop where in one place throughout the year at different times, weather, seasons, shots of passing buses are taken. One street from the city center with elements of houses of different eras, sizes, and styles. And opposite is a village street where every fence is like a story of the family that lives in that house. Combining elements of everyday life, the author creates a new reality, conveys beauty and unexpectedness
