Yulia Krivich is a visual artist, activist, and curator. Her practice is based on a post-artistic approach and community-building. She explores issues related to language, migration, and postcolonial theory. Yulia is co-founder of the Solidarity Community Center Słonecznik (Sunflower) at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw as well as a member of the Soniakh Digest, a digital platform that researches contemporary info-war and geopolitics from the perspective of Eastern Europe.
She has participated in numerous international exhibitions in Ukraine, Poland, and internationally. In 2023-24, Yulia co-curated with the Polish curator Anita Nemet two installments of the exhibition Dear Future in Warsaw and Bielsko-Biała. The project is a ‘letter to the future’ in which artists, architects and volunteers from Ukraine and Poland consider the tools in the artistic arsenal to create new futures in the context of the ongoing Russian war against Ukraine.
Yulia graduated from the Department of Architecture at the State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture in Dnipro, Ukraine, and from the Faculty of Media Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. Originally from Dnipro, she currently lives in Warsaw.
