Evgenija Koch

Born in St. Petersburg (RUS) und currently based in Hannover (DE)

Evgenija Koch draws from her Russian heritage and integrates it with her experiences and observations of current societal and political developments. Her artistic journey commenced with formal training at the Russian Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, where she acquired comprehensive knowledge of tools, a range of techniques, and an understanding of the significance of materials and their historical origins. Liberating herself from the then-revolutionary but personally tiring method of socialist realism in Russia, she forged her own artistic path and honed her skills in various techniques.

In addition to her artistic pursuits, Evgenija pursued a degree in Mechanical Engineering at St. Petersburg State University. This multidimensional approach to life and art is a pivotal aspect of her creative identity. The unique combination of technical expertise and creative expression significantly contributes to the depth and precision of her artworks.
