Vasya Dmytryk

Vasya Dmytryk is a Ukrainian sculptor. Born in 1991, he lives and works in Odesa, Ukraine.

Vasya works in the fields of public art, conceptual sculpture and installations. In his artistic practice, he uses recycled and discarded materials in an attempt to search for boundaries between internal conflicts and outer perceptions as well as real and the imaginary worlds. He creates these sculpture primarily out of wood, metal and composites.

Dmytryk's pieces thread figuration and abstraction, they nevertheless recall classical figurative traditions across a range of cultures and historical periods, typifying a strand of neo-primitivism that has arisen in the past decade.
