Masha Luch, a contemporary mixed-media artist, was born in a small Siberian town.
She received her Master's degree in fashion design from Saint-Petersburg University of Design and Technology in 2011. Masha had worked in the fashion industry for more than 5 years, and at the same time took her first steps in art.
In 2012 she completed a short course in Fashion Design at Central Saint Martins, London. In the following years, she gained impressive experience in the field of visual design and motion graphics, working as a project designer with global 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, the USA and Finland.
My interest in cryptograms, puzzles, and riddles arose at the beginning of my creative way — during my studies as a fashion designer.
I was interested in clothes and fashion as 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 topic has become a logical extension of my creative way of art. I am immersed in the search for interpretations of images and meanings of everyday camouflage and the methods of disguise.
I use different mediums - textile art, sculpture, video, and digital art. That easy way of operating the mediums is directly correlated with one of the main ideas of my work — disguise. Minimalism, lightness, and plasticity of my hidden messages make room for ambiguous interpretations, which I, as an author, want to share, allowing the viewer to find their own meanings and reflections of their experiences.
