Biography
Ikiru grew up in both Moscow and New York City's Lower East Side. Having obtained a Communication Arts degree in 1999, he assumed the alias Ikiru (Japanese: "to live") Genzai (Japanese: "now") in homage to Akira Kurosawa film Ikiru and a character in it. Under this alias he became a member of several conceptual, politically-conscious graphic design collectives such as the Pencilninja Company and GTS (Group for Tactical Subversion).
From 2003 to 2009 Ikiru attended the Deutsche Film und Fernsehakademie Berlin (The German Film and Television Academy) in Berlin, Germany.
Adhering to a 60's-70s auteur tradition, Ikiru's work creatively explores and interprets social ailments from an underdog perspective.
