Nickita Tsoy - Auctions

Born in Kyiv, in 1991. He graduated from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in the Studio of Wall Painting and Sacred Culture under the direction of Prof. M. A. Storozhenko, where he received his diploma in 2016. From 2018 to 2019, he studied at the Kyiv Academy of Media Arts. Since 2016, he has been a member of the National Union of Young Artists of Ukraine.

In his painting work, he develops a historical narrative of the post-ideological climate of the last decades. He considers the human being as a bearer of ideological consciousness, who searches for the foundations and content of his own existence, while accepting the internal conflicts and dissonances that are awakening within him. It is a search for the boundary between anatomy and anti-anatomy, between truth and the distortion of truth.
