Andrii Kasianchuk was born in 1996, lives and works in Kyiv. 

  His creative path began in 2021, when he entered the Igor Chekachkov Academy of Modern Photography. As a student, he focused on analog photography techniques. Later, as he expanded his knowledge of art history and photography, he moved beyond technical limitations to include a variety of imaging techniques.

  Subsequently, more mystical and abstract elements appeared in Andrii’s work, reflecting the influence of the literature of García Márquez, James Joyce, the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, and the work of representatives of the “Zhyvopysnyi Zapovidnyk”. These elements convey his view of the world, the interaction between nature and humanity, and the question of self-identity.

  In this period, Andrii’s art reflects inner emotional experiences and philosophical reflections on the form and content of the created objects.
