Multidisciplanary artist. She is a graduate of the Tver Art College, the A. L. Stieglitz State Academy of Art and Design, and the School of Contemporary Art Free Workshops. Oksana works with installations and objects, ceramics, textiles, and found items. The artist notes: "My practice is based on diaries. I have kept them since childhood, accompanying the text with sketches: there are events, reflections, self-reflections, and sensations. A diary is about the personal, while art is about openness to the world. By integrating one into the other, I reveal the underlying layers. Our experiences are often similar — people are not very different in their pursuit of happiness and their desire to escape suffering."

Irina works at the intersection of painting and new techniques, utilizing analog photoprinting, ceramics, objects, and installations.

This helps track changes in society, time, and my own identity," says the artist.

Interdisciplinary artist. Graduate of the Moscow Architectural Institute (MArchI). Tima says: “Two key themes in my work are Humor and Serenity. I draw inspiration from contemporary culture; I see internet memes as a snapshot of our times. My art is filled with playfulness, naivety, and irony — this is my active side. But there are days when I seek tranquility and don’t saturate the image with meaning — like background music. I look for a balance between primitivism and naturalism, and ways to apply my visual language in sculpture, metalwork, furniture, and tattooing.”

Artist. Graduate of Bauman Moscow State Technical University and the School of Contemporary Art Free Workshops. For Arthur, abstraction is a way to capture the ever-changing nature of the world and the decision-making processes. His paintings begin with a point and evolve into multilayered structures, similar to thoughts that intertwine, shaping further actions. The outcome of the work is unknown in advance, but the process is based not on improvisation, but on sequential choices — those that a person makes continually.

The interface becomes a unifying element, blurring the boundary between opposites — it makes the inanimate alive and the living conditional."

"In my projects, I explore the multilayered nature of materials, their transparency and density, and the interplay of light and shadow. Forms disappear and re-emerge — at the boundary between the figurative and the abstract. I am interested in emotions and behaviors, the hidden dynamics of habits, fears, and hopes," notes the artist.

His scenographic education shapes a unique perspective on the canvas surface. Working with various materials—from powders and pigments to airbrush, oils, and lacquers—Gosha achieves volume and a sense of immersion in the painting. He starts with recognizable motifs, using the material world as an opportunity to play with texture, rhythm, and color. As a result, form partially dissolves, becoming an element of the pictorial composition.

Art becomes a means of tuning into space, movement, nature, and its variability. Her language emerges from bodily and meditative practices, methods of alternative medicine, and interaction with the living environment. Using found materials—stones, shells, branches, bark—the artist creates mediating characters, conduits between the human and non-human worlds.

In his works, Pavel Grishin creates allusions to the works of previous eras, reflecting on the processes taking place in art and the world. Considering personal experience as a necessary condition for creating a work, Grishin uses artistic expression as an opportunity to reflect on individual behavioral and thought patterns and the discursive constructs that shape them. In this case, autobiography acts as a kind of inoculation against sentimentality, adding tension to his artistic practice by combining the intrigue of a particular work with the directness and genuine quality of sincerity.

"The main medium is painting, which is a way to find coherence in the post—truth world, when the daily menu of information consists of a mixture of entertainment content and propaganda, advertising, news and commentary, and polyphony that adds up to white noise. Oil painting implies slow production as an antidote to a world in which everything happens at once and everything has already happened."

Artist. Studying at the Free Workshops School of Contemporary Art. Graduated from Alexander Brodsky's Laboratory "Architecture through Etching" and the Stroganov Moscow State Academy of Arts and Industry.
"I depict portraits of the local area. An important part of my work is traveling and experiencing the road. I find and capture subjects for my paintings from the window of a car or train. This way, my works become traces of my journey across the country. I believe that psychologicalism and decorative elements are important in a painting. Therefore, I am interested in painting winter and transitional seasons, as well as late autumn and early spring. A characteristic feature of my works is the use of desolate spaces, but they are not devoid of human presence. Through architecture, I create an echo of human presence. Often, the main characters in my paintings are industrial and rural buildings, which serve as traces that can be used to create a psychological portrait of their creators and inhabitants. My goal is to capture and convey to the viewer the fading nature, the beauty of proportions, and the plasticity of simple geometric shapes."

"I am interested in the themes of self-representation as an artist, the blending of the virtual and the human, and the desire to be visible. The blurred boundaries between self-awareness as a woman on the one hand, and as an artist on the other, provide a catalyst for reflection on how professional artistic activities permeate personal lives. By exposing herself, the artist is like an internet user who doesn't have complete confidence in who is watching her or what "hashtags" she's using."

Artist and architect from Nizhny Novgorod. He works mainly in three mediums: sculpture, land art and performative practices.

"The main topic of interest to me is fictional mythology. I am referring to the concept of an inappropriate artefact - an object that should not exist according to official history. In my practice, I create and document artefact objects, forming episodes of alternative history.

I work in the studio, in the forest and on the street. The basis of my mythology is personal experience and my childhood experiences. I call the collection of studio objects and practices a bestiary. This is a large multi-level system in which every being (or object) is the answer to my long-term and current questions. As an architect, I tend to work with space. It is important for me to have a constant dialogue between the object, the context and the viewer through scale, tactility, alternation of emptiness and fullness. The materials I mainly work with are concrete, wire and tracing paper.

I am interested in the question of time and temporality: the artefacts that I create in the studio are some evidence of a world in which time has stopped, and space has become, on the one hand, an object for observation, and on the other - an objective reality, dynamically changing and surpassing all living things.

At the same time, my practices in natural landscapes, on the contrary, are associated with the ritualization of the processes of changing artwork over time. I create objects that go through a natural cycle: they age, burn, sink underground, disappear."

Born in 1999 in Stavropol, now lives and works in Moscow. Studied at the HSE School of Design (Design and contemporary art, 2017–2021).

In my artistic practices, I study language and its main attributes – words and gestures - since modernity can use them as a tool of violence and suppression. I am recoding the already existing space of verbal and non-verbal signs, which I am accumulating through plastic language.

I often use a playful form of interaction with the viewer as a unit of social space, I create situations through which I deconstruct the authoritative discourse and the moment of interaction between the authorities and its "spectator". In this context, I explore the concept of "political action", where the factor of the social process is not devoid of the aspect of theatricality. So, I am interested in the gesture accompanying speech and the unnamed states of repetition and transition from one gesture to another, which can be articulated through a choreographic performance.

Drawing on her experience in the beauty industry and injectable cosmetology and using feminist optics, she talks about patriarchal stereotypes and superstitions. Liza works in different mediums depending on the project. Often uses materials that refer to the beauty industry (glitter, cosmetic masks, false nails), and pink, referring to gender stereotypes.

Lika was born in 1989. Lives and works in Moscow. She began her professional career with studying as a manager, but she came to art and now has an education at the British Higher School of Art and Design (workshop of Sergei Sonin and Elena Samorodova, workshop of Rauf Mamedov), Joseph Backstein ISI (formerly IPSI) (new artistic strategies). Now she is studying at the BAZA Institute.

She works with the themes of personal freedom and free choice using methods of medieval predictive practices and ancient descriptive systems, placing them in new contexts of multimedia environments. She turns to the poetics of the Middle Ages, religious ideas and magical practices, looking for ways to actualize them in technological time. Includes in its multimedia installations the viewer's ability to interact with the work and influence the form of its existence.

As a general principle of practice - a speculative spell – 'wingardium leviosa' – 'Levitate things': the discovery of universal ideal foundations that determine the structure of the perceived and experienced world, which is considered as created by human consciousness, "floating in the air" (free from empirical content). The method is based on the desire to consider objects in the form in which they directly appear to consciousness - as objects of intentional contemplation and experience.

Katya Yatsenko lives and works in Moscow. She is currently studying at the Institute of Contemporary Art of Joseph Backstein.

Katya often works with fabric and embroidery. In the process of creation, meditativeness and contact with the material are important for her. How it feels and interacts tactilely with other parts of the work. In her artistic practice, she explores issues of corporeality, body transformation, as well as gender and cultural stereotypes.

At the moment, Katya is interested in alternative options for co-existence between living beings and objects. For example, such phenomena as objectum sexuality and other interspecies interactions. She is currently exploring the topic of tactile communication between people, plants and objects.
