Andrey Severynko is a vanguard Ukrainian sculptor, born in Kiev, 1968.
He studied art at Kiev Art Industrial College (graduated in 1988) and The National Academy of Art and Architecture (graduated in 1997).
In 1998 Andrey received an Honorary Diploma for the best graduation artwork in 10 years (based on the tragedy by V. V. Vynnytchenko ‘Black Panther and White Bear’)
Since 1992 he has been a permanent participant of various national art exhibitions.

It is not easy to identify the style of Andrew Severynko’s sculptures. On entering his underground studio in an old suburban building of Kiev you submerge into the world of magical voyages similar to those of Captain Nemo’s. You are surrounded by ancient mysterious boats, unique insects, beetles, fish and other peculiar creatures formed by the untamed fantasy of the artist.

The materials used by Andrey are also out of the ordinary - iron springs, cogwheels, screws, rusty irons, parts of typewriters and umbrellas and other debris, found on the scrapheap of civilization. All these unwanted bits of junk have been given a second life by Andrey’s extraordinary imagination and exceptional talent. Due to the complexity of their structure some of the sculptures take years to be completed.

Visually refined and complex, all of Andrey’s artworks are sophisticated and philosophical in essence.
