Keito has been living in Russia for almost nine years. All this time she had to face the new cultural code, which was often hostile. The attempts to answer the question of how to construct your own personality at the intersection of different traditions and values, which are often conflicting, require of the artist to reconcile radically different ideas and beliefs. Keito accepted the new value systems initially but returned to traditional and familiar settings. She then got disillusioned in them, too, as she was trying to navigate this cultural contradiction and mismatch.
