Anastasia Sosunova

Artist

Anastasia Sosunova is invited to live and work in the Friche du Palais de Tokyo from March 12 to June 12, 2024. Conceived as a place of welcome, the Friche crosses invitations to give time and space to creators, in direct contact with the institution, its programming and its concerns.

Born in 1993 in Ignalina (Lithuania), lives and works in Vilnius (Lithuania). Anastasia Sosunova is a visual artist based in Vilnius.

Her multidisciplinary work combining video, installation, sculpture, and graphics grows from personal histories and their entanglements with broader cultural, economic, and spiritual structures. She graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts with a BA in Graphic Arts and an MA in Sculpture. Solo and duo presentations of her work include Editorial, Vilnius; Eastcontemporary gallery, Milan; Cell Project Space, London; SixtyEight Art Institute, Copenhagen; Britta Rettberg, Munich; and in the Screens Series program at the New Museum, New York. Her work was recently shown at BFI Film festival, Experimenta program, at ICA, London; Kaunas Biennial, MACRO Museum, Rome; Malmö Konstmuseum; National Gallery of Art in Vilnius; Prospectif Cinéma programme at Centre Pompidou, Paris; FUTURA Contemporary Art Centre, Prague; Baltic Triennial 14, Vilnius; and elsewhere.
