Installation, Writing

Yelizaveta Strakhova (b. 1993, Russia) is an Amsterdam-based spatial practitioner whose work exists at the intersection of art and architecture. Attuned to the omnipresence of water as a connective and transformative force, Yelizaveta uses it as a lens through which to explore societal values and dynamics, reflecting broader cultural and environmental narratives. Her multifaceted practice spans spatial interventions, writing, gardening, curating and working with collective structures. Since earning her MA from the Studio for Immediate Spaces at the Sandberg Institute in 2019, Yelizaveta has contributed to Ornamenta2024 and BIO26 Common Knowledge in Ljubljana, collaborated with TextielLab Tilburg on material research, participated in the Gemene Grond residency in Utrecht, and self-initiated a temporary Communal Bathing Site. She curated an educational program on water at the Luminary Center in Dagestan and contributed essays to HAMAM magazine, ‘More perspectives on Designing Cities for all’, ‘The Perfect House has become a Ruin: on lavoirs’.

アムステルダムを拠点に活動する空間実践者であり、その作品はアートと建築の境目に位置している。社会的価値観や力学を探求するレンズとして水を用い、より広範な文化的・環境的な物語を映し出している。 2019年にサンドベルグ・インスティテュートの「Studio for Immediate Spaces」で修士号を取得以降、多岐にわたるプロジェクトを展開している。
