Александр Егоров (Alexander Yegorov) 

Alexander Yegorov is a Russian visual artist based in Moscow. In his practice,  he utilizes photography and digital technologies to explore contemporary visual  culture. His work investigates perceptions of reality focusing on the themes of  information saturation, overconsumption, aesthetics of imperfection and the  nature of human connection as seen through shared experiences. 

Born in 1987 in Moscow, graduated from the Moscow State University of Printing  Arts in 2010 and from the British Higher School of Art and Design (Faculty of  Photography) in 2012. Studied at Joseph Backstein Institute of Contemporary  Art, completing the New Artistic Strategies course from 2019 to 2020.

In 2021, he was one of  seven Russian artists selected for the international “Lady Dior As Seen By”  project hosted by the Ruarts foundation. His contribution, “Lady in the Jungle,”  was included in the House of Dior collection. In 2022, Yegorov participated in the  “Collab” program at the V-A-C Foundation. In 2024, he was awarded the “Irinox  Save the Food Award” at the MIA Fair Milano for his project “Welcome to  Yesterday,” which explores the theme of communal meals.
