About The Artwork
Kantarovsky reconfigures tropes, symbols, and metaphors, aided by the disfiguration of human bodies in the manner of caricature, in order to delineate his lived and immediate experiences in terms of felt sensations rather than conventional perception. In this way, he disrupts the habitual and automatic perception of the viewer and forces us to question what at the same time seems familiar.
About Sanya Kantarovsky
Sanya Kantarovsky (b. 1982) is well known for his figurative painting, alongside his curatorial and text-based work. Dark humour is a consistent theme throughout his practice, building a sense of inner uneasiness and disquiet as his figures interact with one another- and with Kantarovsky’s artistic predecessors.
He has exhibited internationally, and his work can be found in prominent institutional collections worldwide, such as Tate, London; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C; Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston; Whitney Museum of Contemporary Art, New York City; and the EMDASH Foundation, Berlin.
Following his solo exhibition, ‘Apricot Juice’ with Ieva Misčeviūtė at Studio Voltaire, a comprehensive monograph of his work has been co-published by Studio Voltaire and Koenig Books.
