Viktor Karpenko

I create objects that ask questions.

My work is based on the belief that a single ordinary object can carry more truth than a complex image.

A nail. A feather. A key. A Bible.

Removed from their original purpose, these objects become philosophical statements about faith, violence, greed, freedom, memory and responsibility.

I am not interested in decoration.

I am interested in the moment when a viewer stops looking and starts thinking.
