Biography

Vitaly Yankovy is a multidisciplinary visual artist, designer, DIY researcher, and experimental musician. Working across video essays, animation, 3D, drawing, objects, performance, and sound, he constructs hybrid landscapes from real and software-generated footage, found images, text, and performative actions. His practice draws on dark ecology and posthumanism to address industrial production, war, violence, and digital culture.

Artists

The works examine crafted landscapes - public spaces in Bucharest, the Antipa Natural History Museum, and digitally rendered locations - as sites of temporary escape. They move between comfort and discomfort, natural and artificial, and human and non-human perspectives, questioning how simplified versions of biodiversity shape our relationship with nature.
