Diplomiral je iz novinarstva na Inštitutu za novinarstvo na Beloruskidržavni univerzi in doktoriral iz književnosti na Inštitutu za književnostBeloruske akademije znanosti v Minsku. Je pisatelj, pesnik inkonceptualni umetnik, ki prosti čas preživlja v svoji sobi v Minsku, kjersreba konjak in poskuša svoje demone hinavstva preoblikovati v besede.Medtem se osredotoča na prelom s konvencijami, četudi s svojimi lastnimi.Bil je član avantgardnega književnega gibanja Bum-Bam-Lit (1995–1999),ki je skušalo vpeljati novo paradigmo v belorusko književnost, a si je včasu svojega obstoja nakopalo precej škandalozen sloves. Bil je tudi pobudnikprizadevnega (vendar neučinkovitega) umetniškega projekta AbsentBelarusian Art, ki je vključeval radikalno konceptualno umetnost, avantgardnoestetiko in agresivno eksperimentalno elektronsko glasbo.Osrednje vodilo literarnega ustvarjanja ustanovitelja eksistencialističnegaklovnovskega ansambla Psychical Disbalance Theatre (Fizični neuravnovešeniteater) je greh (angl. sin), kot se pojmuje v krščanstvu. Kot avtor jeznan predvsem po transgresivnih proznih delih, kot so ²ëüëÿ ѳí ïàì¸ð (IlljaSin je mrtev, 2002), 0 (2002), Ñàïñàâàíûÿ ëÿëüê³ (Pokvarjene lutke, 2006)in Òýàòðàëüíûÿ äýìàíû (Gledališki demoni, 2010). Leta 1999 je prejelalternativno Nobelovo nagrado za književnost za »uspešen preboj skoziigro brez pravil«.Illya Sin was born as Ilya Sviryn in 1978 in Minsk, Belarus. He is a writer,poet and a radical performance artist with a degree in Journalism fromthe Belarusian State University and a PhD in Literature from the NationalAcademy of Science of Belarus in Minsk. He tends to spend his spare timesitting in his room in Minsk, drinking cognac, attempting to convert hisdemons of falsehood into words, and focusing on breaking conventions,albeit his own. He was a member of the avant-garde literary movementBum-Bam-Lit (1995-1999), which had aimed to introduce a new paradigminto Belarusian literature, yet earned a rather scandalous reputation alongthe way. He was also one of the curators of the ambitious (but non-effective)Absent Belarusian Art project, combining radical performance theatre,avant-garde aesthetics and aggressive experimental electro music. Themain topic of the literary works of the founder of the existentialist PsychicalDisbalance Theatre clown ensemble is sin, as perceived from theChristian point of view. He has written several works of transgressiveprose, such as ²ëüëÿ ѳí ïàì¸ð (llya Sin is Dead, 2002), 0 (2002), Ñàïñàâàíûÿëÿëüê³ (Broken Dolls, 2006), and Òýàòðàëüíûÿ äýìàíû (Theatre Demons,2010). In 1999 he was awarded with an alternative Nobel Prize for literature(1999) for “succeeding at a ruleless game”.204
