SERGEY SAPOZHNIKOV was born 1984, Rostov-on-Don, Russia, and lives in his native city as well as Moscow. He studied in the Southern Federal University on the Faculty of Psychology), then moved to Moscow to the Institute of Contemporary Art.

Sergey’s favorite subject is the human figure as it interacts with space, trying to adapt to multiple environments. He makes his sets obtained by assembling materials of different kind, the subject moves, mostly alone and isolated. Sometimes there is more than one character on the scene, but there is no interaction between them: each figure is lost in its own actions or postures, each of which is portrayed as part of the series. Often poses are unnatural, complicated, full of dynamism and elastic energy.
