RAÉR is a curated, artist-led collaboration platform built to spotlight individual voices through intentional design and creative direction. Vladislav’s marble acrylic work marks the first release—translated into a limited print series that sets the foundation for what’s to come. From here, RAÉR expands to feature other artists through print-on-demand collaborations, editorials, and select releases—each one honoring the artist’s voice while contributing to a shared creative vision.

Vladislav, a local artist and professional photographer based in Los Angeles, California, born in Russia, is the co-founder of AÉR Studios. His creative practice has always lived at the intersection of disciplines—painting, photography, jewelry, and gemstones—each medium informing the other through texture, light, and form. His work is driven by a deep appreciation for beauty, materiality, and restraint, often expressed through layered processes that reward close attention.

Marble acrylic on canvas became one of his most personal forms of expression. The medium allowed him to explore movement, depth, and emotion without excess—capturing moments that feel both fluid and grounded. Like many artists, Vladislav’s dedication to creating was paired with a quiet longing to be seen on his own terms, without dilution or compromise. That tension—between making and being visible—is where RAÉR began.
