You can buy any of my works. All of them are A6 size (a quarter of A4).

Thank You!

I don’t know who are you, the person who bought all my works - thank you very much! I think it’s the best valuation when a stranger is ready to pay money for having a little piece of my soul in their house. 

Thank you! 

P.s. it relates to you from today and to you from two weeks ago 💙

instant stories

A collection of Instagram stories representing my observational experience through photographing an environment around me with my mobile phone. Musical accompaniment plays equal role within an image and GIF effects added to it, reflecting my emotional state at that moment. These instant stories turned into the moving photographs is an archive of my mental experience of last two years.

Some hard copies of my stories will be exhibited and available to buy at 'Auntie Freeze 6', London's annual anti-elitist art fair, at cave between 17th–27th November (on Thu, Fri, Sat and Sun)

I Have a Dream! (goal reached)

(The goal is reached. But if you feel supporting the living artist (me) — just click here! 😎☕️)

Dear Friends,

I’m hoping to raise the money to buy а 3-in-1 ink tank Canon printer. And I need your help!


It’s price is between £200–250


Why do I need one?

Well, as a living artist I want to continue my experiments with visual art. My photography collection has grown large and needs to be shared with others. One of the strong motivations is to earn some money from it. “Some” - that would be great in the beginning. Once I’ve achieved that level, I can work on the “some more” goal. I have plenty of photographs, graphic sketches, digital collages and even more ideas ready to be shared (and my operating memory begs me to get rid of some old old ones…)


I would like to carry on with my BA Fine Art degree experience by doing my primary research in different kinds of prints. (My mental health will definitely be excited!)


Why particular that kind printer? 

It’s comfortable in use - separate refilling ink tanks make less stress related to the ink, it’s more flexible and I don’t have to buy the full set of colour cartridges just because one colour went low. It has separate ink bottles (cyan, magenta, yellow, black), so I have to worry about refilling bottles with original or generic inks. Moreover, it’s more eco friendly at least because I will use less plastic for new cartridges and less often will change colour inks. After the past few days heat record, I’m more aware about the global climate change… I like to believe that my little effort would also have its benefits. And finally, my lazy personality would like to make less waste because it doesn’t like to go downstairs to the bin room which is never on my way to anywhere… The less often I go there, the more happy I am!


3-in-1 option will also get me a scanner, which I’m missing in my research greatly! 


Scanning-copying-printing is all I need at the moment to feel calm, happy and helps me along the way to continuing with my BA Fine Art degree experience!


If you would like to support a local, living, young artist (in terms of my visual art experience I am very young!), you can donate any affordable amount using this link:

I will keep you updated in my Instagram @costeek stories. Leave your email address in the donation message for personal updates and your postal address for receiving my personal Thank You Very Much print as an appreciation of your kind support.


costeek loves you, please love him the same way!

Sun Bless

Another inspiration from Sean Deschamps music. 'Sun Bless' is an illustration of my current state influenced by the sunny weather. Flying effect of the music adds the effect of the lightness as an air.

Urban Symphony. Draft 002.

 I'm not sure if 'Urban Symphony' is a correct way to call it. Should I use 'City Symphony' instead? 

Continuing exploring capacities of the mobile videography I decided to return to more-comfortable-to-watch format for screening it on a desktop.

Urban Symphony. Draft 001.

I’m interested in mobile phone videography abilities - how it could fit into contemporary art frames. Does it necessary need high tech equipment or inspiration comes first?

Here I was inspired by the song: music by Sean Deschamps, vocal by Liam Rhodes.


An Orange

The idea of cubist photography let me think how I could this medium in unusual for me way. Here I took multiply photographs by my iPhone camera and layered them on top of each other with Photoshop software help using one blend mode for each result. I consider them as a draft.
