Masha Luch, a contemporary multimedia artist, was born in a small town in the Pre-Ural region.
In 2011, she graduated from the university in St. Petersburg, where she earned a Master's degree in fashion design. Following that, Masha worked in the fashion industry for over 5 years, simultaneously taking her first steps in the realm of art.
In 2012, she completed a brief course in design at Central Saint Martins in London. In the subsequent years, she gained impressive experience in visual design and motion graphics, serving as a designer and art director on projects with international brands.
In 2022, Masha Luch took a contemporary art course at a Research practices workshop led by Hanna Zubkova.
Masha used to reside and work in St. Petersburg, Russia before relocating to Podgorica, Montenegro. Masha's artworks are in private collections in Armenia, Russia,Serbia, the USA and Finland.
My interest in cryptograms, puzzles, and riddles arose at the beginning of my creative journey—during my studies as a fashion designer. I was intrigued by clothes and fashion as a means of cultural disguise and a non-verbal sociopsychological form of communication. Studying fashion through these aspects helped me realize that one of the most fascinating phenomena for me is the effect of the mimicry of objects.
This theme has become a logical extension of my artistic journey. I am immersed in the search for interpretations of images and meanings of everyday camouflage and the methods of disguise.
I employ various mediums—textile art, sculpture, video, and digital art. This versatile use of mediums is directly correlated with one of the main ideas of my work—disguise. The minimalism, lightness, and plasticity of my hidden messages create room for ambiguous interpretations. As an author, I aim to share these, allowing the viewer to find their own meanings and reflections based on their experiences.
