Margo Trushina (born 1981, Moscow, Russia) returns to Salon Vert with the first solo show for the artist in the UK. The new body of works marks a return for Trushina to her favorite medium of photography, while she combines it with current industrial materials and technologies she usually employs in her architecturally inflicted installations.
Trushina’s artworks deal with the mechanisms of perception and the complexities of our relationship to space. Her practice includes interactive installations and outdoor sculptures, that invite us to consider how build spaces function as social, psychological and perceptual environments.
Trushina studied Photography at Moscow State University and Institute of Problems of Contemporary Art under Josef Bakhstein in Moscow. She then went to obtain her MA in Fine Art from the Chelsea College of Art in London. Since 2006 she has shown in various exhibitions in Russia, Europe and the UK. In addition to gallery shows, her works recently featured in numerous public exhibitions, including "Russian Cosmos" at Castello De Rivoli Museo D'Arte Contemporanea, Turin, Italy; Multi-Media Art Museum, Moscow; "On the Road", Moscow Photo Biennial, Moscow; "In The Middle of Nowhere", Chelsea Parade Ground, London; The Spiral Moment, Archstoyanie, Moscow, and others. Trushina lives and works between Moscow and London.
