seagulls - Limited Edition of 8 Photograph

YOmoYO – a project founded by the artist Maxim Svishёv. My works are bundles of emotions, symbiosis of computer and animated characters, silicone and plastic toys, combination of 3D graphic world and wildlife. Abstract creatures generated by conscious formed in the era of internet, television, countless gadgets, posts in social accounts, likes, news feeds, accounts and other manifestations of contemporary reality. Nature is very important for me – its rhythm, forms and plastic. I combine it with the plastic and rhythm of metropolis streets with its traffic, advertising spam, stress, the race for the attention and thirst to sink in multifarious entertainments. Thuswise my creatures are essentially civilization mutants. These works are some kind of meditation on the possibility of saving live soul in the technological computerized environment. The opportunity to stay a life-being, not bio robot in nowadays world. Maxim Svishёv, born on 31.05.1982 in Leningrad city.
