Daniil Revkovskyi

(born in 1993) is a Kharkiv-based artist who works in a duo with Andrii Rachynskyi. He graduated from the Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts. He works with such media as video and installation. In 2010, together with Rachynskyi, he created Memory, a public community, through which artists explored the collective memory in the post-Soviet space. In their practice, the artists combine fictional and commemorative practices: in this controversial connection of approaches, the artists manage to speak sharply about the topics of human responsibility and collective responsibility for historical events (namely, in the Tailings Dam and Mickey Mouseʼs Steppe projects). Within the Ivano-Frankivsk program of the Kyiv Biennial, Revkovskyi will present his solo art project. This work was created in the summer of 2023 during a residency at Khata-Maysternia in Ivano-Frankivsk region.
