Riabov Pavlo is a writer and artist who builds worlds in the spaces between languages and states of being. Their work often explores the architecture of power, the psychology of constraint, and the haunting resonance of folktale and bureaucratic ritual. PRACTICAL is their first published novel—a dual-keyed labyrinth born from a fascination with silence, selection, and the selves we become to survive.
