About the artwork

The world rarely stays pure.

Everything that existed before humanity arrived was shaped by natural rules. No one deliberately changed the planet — life evolved, adapting to change.

Over two million years ago we appeared in the same way — naturally.

Today, through the power of our minds, humanity dominates other animals, builds magnificent cities, writes poetry, and prays to old and new gods.

But the true ideal has been lost.

One species cannot even coexist peacefully with its own kind. Radical actions often turn against anything that differs even slightly.

Perhaps when we find ourselves in darkness, we begin to seek the light and finally understand: the system is broken.

It cannot be repaired. Only dismantled.

Andrew Kunitsyn
Date of birth: 1990
Place of residence: Kharkiv

Ukrainian multidisciplinary artist.

Andrew began his creative journey with graffiti, with its spirit of provocation and rule-breaking. A dialogue with urban space became his first language of self-expression, through which he gradually moved beyond street culture and turned toward broader and deeper topics.

Today, the artist studies and integrates into his work personal observations on society alongside scientific, sociocultural, and behavioural research, which, through the lens of his art, addresses the unconscious, behavioural patterns, and the global challenges of humanity.

His practice includes installation, painting, objects, and media projects.

He currently lives and works in Lviv.

Studio: Zelena St. 115b, office 520, Lviv, Ukraine
