Every now and then, I am presented with opportunities to explore artistic avenues that beckon a departure from my signature style.

Such was the case with a recent project dedicated to the revered statue of the dog in the Moscow subway station — a homage to the tradition where countless individuals seek good fortune by delicately touching the canine's nose. This piece was made during my year long thesis project to tie into the theme of “to be loved is to be changed”, showcasing this statue as an exaggeration of the copper dogs nose, still remain golden after many years of it being stationary.

While i usually indulge in playful illustrations, this project allowed us to showcase my versatility and adaptability.
