His main points of interests are climate justice, socio-economic inequality, and interrogating exploitative and hierarchical modes of thought. Vlad aspires to be a novelist, an archaeobotanist, and a less ambitious person. His hobbies include making art that he shares with practically nobody and criticizing the artwork of others.
