Two languages. One story.
Beyond the Glass Studio is a bilingual cultural studio. I help museums, galleries, artists and collectors tell the stories behind art — in Russian and English, and in formats people actually watch.
On Instagram I run Art History on Screen / The Cultural Compass: short reels that decode the art and history behind famous film and TV scenes, from the Roman arena of Gladiator to the Sutton Hoo helmet that echoes through Rohan.
