Early on Katerina Belkina knew about her exceptional talent to see the world through different eyes. Born in Samara in the southeast of European Russia, she was brought up in an creative atmosphere by her mother, a visual artist. Her education as painter at the Art Academy and from 2000 at the school for Photography of Michael Musorin in Samara gave her the tools to visualize her ideas. Exhibitions of her sublime, mystic self-portraits ensued in Moscow and Paris. In 2007 Katerina Belkina was nominated for the prestigious Kandinsky Prize (comparable to the British Turner Prize) in Moscow. Recently she got the Hasselblad Masters Prize. Currently she lives and works in Werder (Havel) near Berlin.

Your work is lovely.
Greetings, Katerina. I don't even know if you'll ever come back to take a peek here on deviantart where I first discovered your work, but I wanted to let you know that I just saw four pieces of yours at the Venice Biennale! It was in Palazzo Mora, an amazing exposition all around. Congratulations for joining it!
