Irina Minaeva

I was born in 1975 and spent my childhood in Uzbekistan, Russia, Germany and finally Ukraine, where I still live, in Odessa.

I first encountered batik at art school, but became fully engaged with batik when I graduated from the South Ukrainian Pedagogical University in Odessa in 1997.

Since then, I have worked with children, teaching batik and still take a great interest in drawing, painting, and photography. I am currently experimenting with mixed batik and am particularly interested in clothing, and creating designs for ties and cravats.
