about
I am a multidisciplinary artist working across photography, performance, installation and research. My practice brings together data art, feminist and socially engaged art, inclusive design and participatory approaches. I am interested in how we experience the world through our bodies, senses and everyday interactions, and how perception shapes our relationships with people, objects and spaces.
My work explores accessibility, sensory experience, cultural memory, gender, motherhood and alternative forms of participation. Through observation, experimentation and collaboration, I create situations that invite people to see familiar things from different perspectives and engage with the world in new ways.
Open to collaborations and joint projects.
I was born in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, in 1989 and began exhibiting my photography in 2009. In 2010, I received a silver medal at the International Photo Biennale Tashkentale-2010. In 2014, I held a solo photography exhibition, Japan, at the Ikuo Hirayama International Caravanserai of Culture in Tashkent, with the support of the Embassy of Japan in Uzbekistan and the Academy of Arts of Uzbekistan.
Over the years, my artistic practice has expanded from photography to include video art, performance, installation and research-based projects. In recent years, I have been particularly interested in data art, exploring how research and data can become artistic material and open new perspectives on social and cultural topics. I have participated in creative laboratories, exhibitions, artist residencies and educational programmes in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Japan. I have also completed professional development programmes in art management and the creative economy.
A significant part of my work focuses on inclusion and accessibility in contemporary art and culture. In 2021–2022, I took part in CCA Lab, where I explored inclusive approaches to contemporary art and exhibition practices. In 2023, I created Naqshlar / Patterns, an inclusive art and educational project introducing traditional Uzbek patterns through a Braille book, an accessible website and 3D tactile models for blind and low-vision audiences.
In 2025, during the HAJINOSATO AIR artist residency in Osaka, Japan, I developed My Time, a research-based data art project exploring mothers’ experiences of personal time. Alongside my artistic practice, I work as an inclusion and accessibility consultant, give lectures and contribute to the development of inclusive cultural programmes and exhibitions.
