Kathiuska
Kathiuska is the name I sign my own work with: films, comics, books and objects about family, memory and the places I come from.
My practice has moved across filmmaking, fashion design, illustration and animation, always returning to human emotions, the sensoriality of color and the expressive potential of storytelling.
