ABOUT :

Oleksii Shcherbak is a Ukrainian-born, Paris-based artist creating poetic, otherworldly visions through painting and drawing. His practice is grounded in process-driven figuration with sentimental, mythic characters - cosmic exiles navigating strange emotional landscapes. His style rethinks traditional portraiture, exploring memory, nostalgia, and the surreal contradictions of time and identity.

Shcherbak graduated from L’école des Beaux-Arts in 2025, and holds degrees in easel painting and free graphics from National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (NAFAA), Kyiv. In 2025 Shcherbak opened a solo exhibition at the Corridor Foundation, Shenzhen, where he has previously featured in the group exhibitions Mystical Me (2025) and The Sphere of Reality and Fantasy (2024). Other recent solo exhibitions include Victims of Grenouilles, Rukh Art Hub & Mriya Gallery, Tribeca, New York (2024) and Oleksii Shcherbak, Test Gallery, Barcelona, Spain (2023). Selected group exhibitions include Animal at Anima Mundi (2025), Crash, at Ecole des Beaux-arts, group exhibition Paris (2023),Point of Time, ImagineArt gallery, Barcelona (2022), and Studio Iron at Saatchi Yates, London curated by Isamaya Ffrench (2026) among others. His works are held in numerous private collections internationally.
