SLAVEYA STARKOV

My curiosity has always taken many forms. After earning my BFA in Comparative World Theatre & Art from Fordham University, my focus in visual storytelling led to a career in art direction for film/video and editorial content, and creative direction for fine jewelry brands for the last decade in New York. Throughout, my visual art practice remains a consistent study in narrative driven imagery with themes exploring the fragile nature of time and human relationships, all while experimenting with scale, color, and light. The primary thread in my work continues to be temporality, paradox, and a play of scale emphasizing the dynamics between intimacy and distance, playfulness and profundity.
