Arti Struyanskiy

Arti Struyanskiy is an artist whose oeuvre is focused on intense feelings born out of constant comparison between a human body and the ongoing processes within universe. His works are fueled by a mixture of ontological questioning and physics. The results of these explorations pursuit creating a ground for forfeiting such notions as psychological time, desire for the ‘becoming’, and consequently and ultimately the misery of existence. Arti was born and raised in Moscow, Russia. He has attended Stroganov’s Academy of Art, Moscow, Russia and California College of the Arts, San Francisco, USA. Currently, he is residing on unceded Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh territories and pursuing an MFA degree at the University of British Columbia.
