Vlad Kulkov has a major interest in the fragility and imminence of the world. Through his abstract works on canvas and paper that are created using a broad brush to paint never-ending patterns, he wishes to explore further the essense of the universe.
Yusuke Akamatsu (b. 1967) works with the techniques of collage, assemblage and montage, blending diferent mediums and disciplines to produce unique poetic works, exploring the complexity of human existence.
Emering artist Sergey Kozlov conveys tranquillity and essence by means of the contrasting colors of his geometric compositions. Cheerful, open, and full of vitality, his work embodies a journey around his inner world to communicate his essence to the outside viewer.
Katia Kesic (b. 1986) explores the human body as a memory vessel which collects traces of one’s reality and their imagination through her ceremic scupltures.
Marina Alexeeva, a Russian media-art pioneer with her unique digital Life Boxes installation will show at START for the third time.
