Alexander Innokentev

Graduated from Saint Petersburg Stieglitz State Academy of Art and Design with a degree in animation and graphic design.

Monsters with horns that seem to have escaped from the pages of fantasy books, hand-poke sketches, an existential comic strip about the fate of a bread loaf and a touching story about pilots are among of the works of artist. Alexander designs logos, tattoos, graffiti, album covers, posters for concerts and movies. In addition to his own projects, Alexander often participates in various projects. He handled the design for the MediaZone (an online media) merch, a video for the Insomnia Festival, album covers for Sonic Death band, designed merch for «62nd parallel».

His posters could be seen in cities like Yakutsk, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kiev and Berlin. More than a hundred people wear t-shirts with his drawings. In addition to the animation works, Sasha is better known as «kygygy oyuur». This is the name of the community devoted to his projects and creativity. «Kygygy oyuur» means «Winter forest». This phrase, according to the author, is quite atmospheric and beautifully captures Yakutia and the region as a whole.

The graphic features a mix of hand-poke tattoo culture, back alleys, vanilla network illustration, Asia, European medieval engravings.

Location: Yakutsk, St Petersburg, Russia
