About the Artist

Vasily Klyukin - Visual Artist, Sculptor and Architect

Vasily Klyukin

Vasily Klyukin (born 1976) is a Southern France/Monaco-based visual artist, sculptor and architect. From 2012, Klyukin began to focus on highly imaginative digital architectural design, creating the "Designing Legends" project - a book of imaginary architecture published by Skira Editore in Milan.

In 2017, Klyukin's work was introduced to the global art world with his sculptures. The artist has a trademark technique where he makes multi-faceted pieces using industrial materials like laser-cut steel, polycarbonate, plywood, or cardboard into 3D sculptures, which he mostly finishes by hand painting.

His works are in collections of major museums including The State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, Osthaus Museum Hagen, Das Seewerk Museum in Moers, and the Museum Tower of David in Jerusalem.
