Interdisciplinary project with Victor Sydorenko: The spectrum's colours are all a white light

  • Julia Shutkevych

The latest project by Victor Sydorenko uses new technologies and experiments with optics on the topics of borderline sensations between the real and the visible, the actual and the desired.

"The spectrum's colours are all a white light" project by Victor Sydorenko consists of three exhibitions that were presented in 3 acknowledged galleries in Kyiv: the Lavra gallery, the National Museum "Kyiv Art Gallery", and the M17 Center for Contemporary Art. The exhibition covers the artist's diverse work that he has created in over 25 years of his artistic career: paintings, photography, and sculptures as well as video art, and installations created by young artist neometa/Julia Shu. Victor Sydorenko is among the most iconic Ukrainian artists of the post-war generation, whose project "Millstones of Time" represented Ukraine at the 50th Venice Biennale. The artist is not afraid of experimenting with either themes or materials: he paints easel artworks, creates large-scale sculptures, and collaborates on video art. The main themes in the artist's work are the formation of a transhumanist society, new social subcultures, and the meaning and value of the term "human" in the new era of digital meta-universes.
