Pavel Pepperstein

Artist, musician, theorist, novelist and film director, Pavel Pepperstein was born in 1966 in Moscow, where he continues to live and work. He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague from 1985–87, and shortly after co-founded the artist collective Inspection Medical Hermeneutics. Using watercolour, acrylic, ink and pencil, Pepperstein’s narrative works depict fictional and historical characters trapped in dystopian scenarios. Combining politics with science fiction and psychedelia, he builds colourful universes which are very much informed by Suprematism, Constructivism and Moscow Conceptualism.
