About
Oyat Shukurov (born 1989) is an artist and an architectural practitioner based in London.
In his artistic practice, he addresses poetic qualities of space—those hard to measure and grasp: personal and collective memory, layered anthropogenic landscape, and urban artefacts. Oyat explores his subjective perceptive mechanisms, combining psychogeography and speculative cartography. He creates acrylic paintings and charcoal drawings using recollections and dreams as primary means of inspiration.
