Sergey Lesovoy (b. 1999, Kurgan, Russia) is a contemporary multimedia artist working with human form, material contrast, and immersive sound environments. His practice combines elongated figurative compositions with raw and reclaimed materials, exploring themes of transformation, perception, and the evolving structure of the human body. Sound is integrated selectively, expanding the spatial and atmospheric dimension of the work.

My practice focuses on the human form, reduced to its essential structure, explored through visual perception and, when necessary, through sound.

I create elongated human figures—most often female—stripped of hair, clothing, and superfluous details. By removing the excess, I focus on silhouette, proportion, and direction. These bodies are neither portraits nor characters; they are purified presences that hint at a possible evolution of the human form.

Form is always primary in my process. Each work begins visually—with a search for lines and proportions that feel intrinsically right. I add sound only when the work truly needs it—when I feel that an additional layer can enhance the atmosphere and expand spatial perception. This is not illustration, but a structural expansion of perception. Depending on the piece, the sound can be textural and dense or meditative and minimalistic.

I perceive sound as a vibration attuned to visual energy. Image and sound interact through sensation rather than narrative, creating an immersive field.

I work with raw and recycled materials—industrial textures, worn fabrics, fragments imbued with memory. The contrast between refined silhouettes and rough surfaces is fundamental. In installations designed for immersion, these elements, together with sound, form an environment that invites the viewer into the work.

My goal is to create spaces where perception expands, where form, material, and, when necessary, sound amplify presence.

For me, art is a way to observe transformation through sensory experience.
