The Beautiful Formula Collective is about painting and creating collective works based on The Beautiful Formula Language. The Beautiful Formula Language makes it possible to understand the course of compositions, to realize the compositions and to design new ones. We use the combination of spontaneity, improvisation, and rhythm in applying colors to surfaces. The Beautiful Formula Collective paints not only in the studio, but also in public spaces. The Beautiful Formula Collective has performed and exhibited in Kyiv, Singapore, Zurich, Istanbul, London and Wuhan, to name a few stops.

The Platforms Project is an international exhibition of the independent art scene and has been presented every year since 2013. The objective of Platforms Project is to map artistic action as it is produced in the context of collective initiatives by artists who decide to join forces in seeking answers to artistic questions by creating the so-called platforms.
