Alina Zakharova

Alina has spent most of her life in Russia, though her roots are in the vibrant and beautiful city of Tashkent, Uzbekistan. A life of Cha Dao has offered her the gentle space to connect with herself and the world around her more deeply. It is this experience that has fostered a broader conversation with her environment, which has inspired her journey with creating handwoven chabu. She is always exploring new ways of creating chabu that are unique expressions of the world around her.
