POLINA FILIPPOVA
“I am a multi-disciplinary artist, working across interactive
art, performances, and video. I hold a Master’s degree
from the Royal College of Art (2021, Moving Image), and
am currently based in London. My work has been exhibited
at the Saatchi Gallery (London), Cynthia Corbette’s
Gallery (London), Menier Gallery (London), The Function
Suite (London). I received an award “Focus On the Female”
as an emerging artist in 2021 and have been shortlisted
as a UK New Artist of the Year in 2022.
The projects I make arise from events, spaces and relationships
I live through. The pieces are set in the places I
live or use the objects that surround me. I get inspiration
in daily life and traces of the digital layer that crosses it.
My process is documental – I record and catalog situations,
objects, people and myself in videos, sounds, texts,
3D scans, pencil and pastel drawings. This material becomes
a starting point for all my work.
In my work, I attempt to uncover the new mental states,
interactions and relationships, that appear because of
the digital world, but have never been represented and
comprehended. I search for a form that imagines a world
where relationships with the digital could be intimate and
deep. I think that interactive art is still in its infancy, and
I would love to be among the ones who define this field
and take it from a technology into a true means of artistic
expression.”
