Yehor Antsyhin

Ehor Antsyhin was born on July 16, 1989 in the Yuvileine village, Dnipropetrovsk region. He graduated from Dnipro Theater and Art College in 2009 and the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in 2015. From 2013 to 2015, he visited contemporary art course by K. Badyanova and L. Nakonechna. Participated in the Specific Dates art group (KKD) in 2015-2018, Montage art group in 2016-2020, the «Gaude Polonia» Scholarship Program in 2020. Works with the theme of memory and discoveries within it through the conflict of personal and official history, social criticism, labor relations.

For the last 5 years he has been actively involved in land art. The last affected his view and perception of the landscape to some extend and helped him to open a new method of interaction with space, the rejection of object-subject relations with the environment and the inclusion of space not as a part but as a participant in the interaction in his works also actualizing the topics of ecology and overproduction. But the golden thread of his artistic practice remains the theme of memory, recollection and oblivion.

He uses the following media: installation, photography, painting, participatory and performative practices, archives, land art. Lives and works in Kyiv.
