1646 presents the work of Victor Yudaev (Moscow 1984, lives in NL) at Intersections at Art Rotterdam.

But the clouds are a sculpture in the form of his studio, referring also to his work that was on view at the 1646 exhibition space in The Hague. It is a laboratory, factory, leisure platform, both functional as well as decorative.

Atelier sculptures have it’s own narrative of creating, measuring, tooling; at the same time being tools for creating objects as the tools are made as objects. It demonstrates to the public the narrative of its own creation. The presentation shows objects and patterns that flow from one to another in changing contexts and use (like turned around arm prosthesis become vases), as a room of references, or as in a dictionary, where words are explained by use of other words.

Info

About Victor Yudaev: Yudaev (b. 1984, USSR) studied mathematics, but didn’t finish the course. Still, neither himself, nor the scientific community has ever regretted the decision. From there on he decided to be an artist (this decision replaced his chances of becoming a piano player). Firstly, Victor had learned to draw a nice curves of men and women and to convey fruits in splendid colors, then he stepped out in pursuit of a larger understanding. He entered Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague in 2009 and graduated four years later. After one year he entered School of Arts of Lyon, wherefrom he graduated two years after with a pomp.
