Portrait of Vanya Botvvinky

Vanya Botvvinky

An artist and illustrator with a background in architecture, originally from Irkutsk. Life drawing sessions have become his safe space to experiment with new techniques (as well as a good weekly excuse for a long bike ride). His drawing practice explores the geometry of the human body, as well as the energy and emotional charge conveyed through silhouette and pose. He enjoys combining different materials, embracing chance and exploring how simplification and omission can strengthen an image. Outside these sessions, he works on paintings and graphic pieces, drawing inspiration from the contrast between urban and natural environments.
