Kristina Sergeeva (b. 1996) is an artist from St. Petersburg, Russia. Her artistic practice centers on exploring themes of memory as social practice and personal perception within the Russian context. Through her work, Kristina seeks to provoke dialogue about contemporary heritage as a phenomenon shaped by closed value systems and authoritarian ideology. She is currently analyzing how power structures leverage the Soviet past to construct affective representations of the present through performative and theatrical practices in photography.
