Anton Tkachenko (1994) - artist, curator, founder of the self-organized space Garage 127, contextual gallery NULLA, member of the VIDSOTOK collective, nominee of the MUKhi and NonStopMedia festivals. Took part in exhibitions in Ukraine (Kharkiv, Lviv, Kyiv, Dnipro, Odesa, Poltava, Sumy), Poland, Germany, Austria and Portugal, international symposium of contemporary art Byruchy, GOGOLFEST festival, Odesa Biennial of Contemporary Art, Documenta fifteen.

Currently, my artistic practice includes various media: graphics, video, installations and creation of art books. But the creative method remains almost always the same, namely, the use of two or more objects (objects, techniques, materials, or anything that carries a meaningful or symbolic load), to which I add a graphic image that creates a meaningful collage. With the help of this collage, I try to rethink the functionality of things, give new meanings, create new emotional and symbolic lines of the story I tell.Also, my projects are almost always based on personal experience and use spatial design.
