Alexandr Bondarev | Alexandr Bondarev was born in St.Petersburg, Russia, but since 2017 lives and works in Riga, Latvia. He makes tobacco smoking pipes since 2011. | ||
Alexandr graduated from school of arts and intended to devote my life to art, to become an artist or, rather, a sculptor. Yet he was better at math and physics, so he decided to go to Technics University. Alexandr worked few years as web-designer, now his primary occupation is a web-programmer. Pipe making was just a hobby, now evolved into beloved half-time job. | Alexandr graduated from school of arts and intended to devote my life to art, to become an artist or, rather, a sculptor.
