Gosha is a painter. However, not a traditional one. She experiments with paints and different media and really cares about texture and line - sometimes sticking pieces of a string to accentuate the line and bring texture at the same time. A special technique she has developed is dripping a non-drip gloss paint from a palette knife. Gosha does this completely freehand because, "I believe that if I allow the line to take its own life, only then the painting will be free and surprising. I see in colours and have always been blessed with a particular trait: Synesthesia. Synesthesia is a condition that happens when a sense, such as a sight, triggers another sense, like the smell, at the same time. My senses blend one with another: I hear music when looking at colours, smell when listening to music and most oddly: I see words in colours.

Thanks to this particular trait I can perfectly capture people in motion or a vibrancy of objects and texture."
