Maya Hayuk<\/h3>\n
\n
\"A<\/figure>\n
Maya Hayuk<\/strong> is a Ukrainian-American artist with an extensive background in a wide range of generative art and social practices. Hayuk weaves visual information from her immediate surroundings into elaborate, painterly abstractions, thus creating an engaging mix of referents from popular culture and advanced painting practices alike. Her large-scale, improvised murals speak to the artist\u2019s obsession with symmetry, \u201cperfect imperfection\u201d and outer\/ inner space. Hayuk\u2019s work has been the subject of one person exhibitions and commissions at venues including FRAC Museum in Dunkerque, FR (2019), The Ukrainian Museum New York (2017), The Bowery Wall, NY (2014), and The Hammer Museum, LA (2013).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"A<\/figure>\n
Artist and activist Betty Roytburd<\/strong> (b.1989, Odesa, Ukraine) lives and works in New York City. Her sculptural installations, videos, and writing have been featured in publications such as Arcadia Missa\u2019s How to Sleep Faster<\/em>, as well as in group and solo exhibitions at CSRA, Jack Hanley, Alyssa Davis, Good Enough ATL, 15 Orient, Gern en Regalia and Kimberly Klark galleries. Her work reflects on the decomposition of memory and the weaponization of nostalgia. She is the co-founder of SPILKA NGO and is currently in pursuit of an MSW at the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
