ANDREI LOGINOV
(*1975, Minsk/Belarus) is an artist. He studied at the art school in Minsk and at the Düsseldorf Art Academy with Gerhard Merz and Magdalene Jetelová. His works have been exhibited internationally. He combines different artistic media, often blending sculpture with photography, to create works situated between nature, science and art. When Johanna-Maria Fritz photographed him for MISS YOU, he was working on his latest series, BIOSYNTHETIC. The sculptural forms he designs are the result of an interaction between artist and nature with the fascinating precision of honeycombs as perfectly uniform hexagons made of wafer-thin processed material. The sculptures describe the process of discovering new solutions for shaping forms. BIOSYNTHETIC shows new perspectives on avantgarde techniques for architecture and art.
