Alexey Dyakov:
Russian Academe of Applied Art 1995
Stroganov Art University Moscow 2002
 Alexey Dyakov is one of the premier carvers to emerge from Russia in recent years. Classically trained, his work carries the signature styling of  the Russian old school. Which is to say, bold and striking -a lot like himself actually. He also is experienced with snow and ice. Currently quite active on the world sand sculpture tour carving sand for exhibitions and competitions, he has won numerous international awards. Including first place here at the Jesolo summer event the last time we featured a competition as part of the show. Alexey is a little quiet and reserved on the outside, but is generally capable of not only good sculpture, but a crackin' good time when "off the clock" as well. You never know what he'll be into next.
  A graduate of the Art Academe in Moscow, and associated with prestigious national artists guilds in Russia, Alexey is courted by other major events worldwide, on a regular basis. So we are glad he chooses Jesolo as one of his landing spots twice a year.
