Embossing is a very delicate and painstaking craft and there are a lot of techniques that I am constantly using. The most basic of them is chasing on brass or copper, and then there is embossing, miniature, enamelling and calligraphy among others.

My first significant project was a square double-carved abstract panel that I made in 2000. I was inspired by the work of Kazimir Malevich and I combined it with Uzbek motifs. Today it is in Poland in a private collection.

I get inspired by everything that is good and pure in this world. I try to keep keen senses and to see beauty in everything that surrounds me. The motifs and the topics come to me naturally in the moments when I do not pressure myself into being creative.

I always think about those who worked before us and how hard it was in those days, and despite this, they made such masterpieces which are now in many museums around the world. I want to be worthy of our ancestors and to have my work passed on to future generations.
