Mr
Gleb’s artistic practice aligns with the philosophy of metamodernism, seeking a balance between experimentation and precision, clarity and ambiguity. His works often appear alien, fragile and at times, provocatively aggressive - evoking visions of alternative life forms that could one day become reality.
Employing scientific tools such as microscopic optics, Gleb observed microorganisms in their natural states, translating them into pictorial and sculptural “portraits” of crystals, trees, metals, and primitive life forms. These were reimagined as cosmic entities.
Deeply engaged with environmental issues, Gleb expresses his connection to nature through his choice of eco-conscious materials. He avoids plastic, instead favouring paper and other recyclable media for his textural and sculptural work.
His work has been exhibited worldwide and is held in private collections in Europe and the USA.
