Artist Statement
In his projects, Dmitry consistently analyses the relationship between
individuals and power, examining the dynamic between subjects and the institutions of the state.
His particular interest is focused on concepts such as identity and self-
identification, exploring what these notions encompass.
Dmitry poses questions such as:
— What methods are used to form a community and belong to a great culture.
— How does an individual justify oneself in the conditions of constant production of sacred symbols and patriotic practices.
Beginning with a personal project centred around an environmental disaster,
Dmitry progressively expands his scope to address more global issues in the
interactions between the state and individuals.
