KVOST ARTIST TALK . VICTORIA PIDUST

VICTORIA PIDUST & VITALII SHUPLIAK

Victoria Pidusts panoramic work Untitled to war I is currently on view at KVOST, as part of the project Screen[far]shots.

Untitled to war I was created on the basis of a photo diary from a trip to Kyiv in spring of 2022. The images appear abstract at first glance, but behind each of them is a reflection of the horrors of war – the destroyed building of a shopping mall. Using photogrammetry and artificial intelligence, Victoria Pidusts final 2D images deliberately play with the shortcomings and flaws of digital scans, raising the question of veracity and Russian manipulation of information, including modern propaganda and the use of deep fake. During the talk, Pidust will show her previous work and discuss her work process.

The talk is part of the project Screen[far]shots, curated by Vitalii Shupliak.
