BIOGRAPHY

Veronika Verbitskaia was born in Yaroslavl, Russia, in 1997. From an early age, she exhibited a keen interest in art and creativity, continually exploring new directions. At the age of 10, she enrolled in a music school, where she studied vocals, piano, guitar, and music theory for seven years. Subsequently, Veronika continued her musical education at the Pedagogical University, specializing in the theory and methodology of musical and artistic education.

While attending university, Veronika developed an interest in drawing, and her passion for travel inspired her to pursue photography. Over the past decade, she has been capturing the beauty of landscapes and natural phenomena.

In 2022, following the birth of her daughter, photography became central to Veronika’s creative life. This period marked her experimentation with film photography and a family move to Ireland, which became a turning point in her journey. Emigration intensified her desire to realize her creative potential, leading to new explorations and discoveries.

In 2024, Veronika began studying at a photography school, initially using self-portraits as a learning tool and later as a means of self-discovery. Since the fall of that year, focusing on artistic portraiture and abstraction, she has participated in exhibitions and competitions.

Today, Veronika continues to explore contemporary art and photography as integral parts of her work, drawing inspiration from masters such as Lee Miller, Paolo Roversi, Annie Leibovitz, and postmodernist artists. Her work maintains an experimental nature with an emphasis on sincerity.
