Egor Buimister (b.1997 in Riga, Latvia) is a contemporary Baltic artist working predominantly in painting and drawing techniques.

His art focuses on the themes of transgression, sacred imagery and memory. It studies emanations, silhouettes and shadows that allow tracing objects that are either long gone or do not fully belong to the world that is given to us in perception.

Buimister’s artistic manner combines a strong academic foundation with a contemporary influence, especially that of popular culture - comic books, advertisement, web art.

Besides large painting projects, Egor also creates a series of artworks combined in albums with the common idea and constructible narrative, thus expressing his interest in narrative strategies and compositional experiments.
