Editorial Projects
I am an independent publisher, writer, and artist within the collective Vanna, a duo composed of Anna Poletaeva and Ivan Kazukov.
We have presented our projects at independent book fairs such as Papier Froissé (2026), Libros Mutantes (2026), Offprint (2024 et 2025), AssBook Fair (2024) and Made Anyway (2024), exploring experimental forms of publishing and contemporary art.I have also contributed to collective publications, including an essay published in a volume edited by the Centre Pompidou in 2025.

2025Independent Magazine: Soap
I contributed to the co-creation of the third issue of Soap, under the direction of Luiza Kohtaneva and Rasuole Sukaityte.For this project, I carried out an in-depth interview with the neighborhood grocer, emphasizing the human, social, and personal narratives that make the store unique.
2023-2025Micro-EditionsCreation and Publication of Micro-Editions and Fanzines: Merci de tourner la page (2024), Public – Privé (2023), Ville en notes (2025), Symbole rouge de la France (2024)
The mini-zine is a visual and textual collection of small urban observations. Through apologies, prohibitions, warnings, or sometimes provocative remarks, the city reveals its social environment—the rules, norms, and expectations that shape our lives as inhabitants.The small yellow fanzine, which I published in 35 copies, is inspired by a medical file note—“please turn the page.” Each page invites the reader to perform an action, as if a story were needed to move forward, even though there is none.
I approach complex subjects with humor, as seen in my recent projects on Parisian tobacco shops and public restrooms. All copies of the book Public – Private were sold out.
2025Artist Books: Nature in a Pocket
This project brings together seven mini-books created in one week in Paris. It explores a shift in urban perception—from speed and architecture to the colors, plants, and subtle forms of life in the city. In Parisian parks, I filmed flowers, capturing nine images of each flower for every book, accompanied by the date and time. Each publication concludes with a brief personal reflection.
