Photinus
PHOTINUS Studio is an artist group for media art based in Kyiv. Until the beginning of the extensive war in Ukraine through Russia, the studio produced installations and artworks for international museums, biennials and festivals. Since February of 2022, the studio’s members have become defenders, fighters and volunteers. Some members went abroad to continue their artistic work and form alliances in support of their homeland.
Photinus was founded in 2012 by the artists and musicians Max Robotov, Liera Polianskova, Ivan Svitlychnyi and Georgiy Potopalskiy and – by expanding into a school serving as a workshop for experiments with digital instruments (sound, video, programming, etc.) – has gradually evolved into an artistic community of artists, programmers, and engineers united by an interest in art and new media.
