Sasha Nesterkina is a contemporary Russian sculptor. The basis of her practice is to create objects and sculptures of a post-apocalyptic landscape. The ruin still lifes make up the dystopian landscape of the future, as if taken from the pages of a fantasy novel. She refers to ruins as new forms that nature creates. In these works it is important for the artist to convey feelings of absence and presence, life and death, anxiety and peace.
Nesterkina uses found objects in her work, which can be old paint cans, furniture, metal, car parts, pots, fabric and other household items. Then, she refined them with included organic materials wax, plants, parts of animal origin. It is important for her to create a multi-layered impression in the work, a sad fascination associated with the awareness of the fleeting and temporary nature of life.
Sasha Nesterkina was born in 1990, in Russia, where she graduated from the British Higher School of Art and Design Moscow and Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) Moscow. She exhibited her works nationally, at galleries, art fairs and museums.
