Installation & light

Elena Volkova

Kyiv, Ukraine

Elena Volkova creates immersive installations that use light, shadow, and reflection as primary media. Her work has been shown at documenta and the Venice Biennale. She investigates perception, memory, and the provisional nature of presence—often using architectural interventions to alter how we experience space and time.
