Veronika Hapchenko
Veronika Hapchenko (Kyiv, 1995) lives and works in Krakow. Embracing both painting and object making, her work is concerned with Russian philosophy and cultural tropes of the former USSR – as well as with the strong ties between esoteric beliefs, politics and militarism that they entail. Looking to philosophical theses, historiography and oral history in her work, the artist traces legends and taboos surrounding revolutionary artists, political figures and the presence of occult in their lives and output.
Hapchenko recently graduated with an MFA in Painting from the Krakow Academy of Fine Art, after first studying stage design at the National, University of Cinema and Television in Kyiv, Ukraine. Berlin. Her solo shows include Import Export, Warsaw, Nanazenit,Warsaw, i gallery, Cracow, Baszta Gallery, Dworek Białoprądnicki Cultural Center, Cracow.
