Alexey Boriskin, b. 1986 in Izhevsk, Russia, is a multidisciplinary artist and a software developer working across video, code, installation and print. Insider experience in large corporate codebases underpins his inquiry into the ethics of algorithmic infrastructures that govern labour, censorship and power. His work has been exhibited at major institutions, including the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, the Multimedia Art Museum, and the Ural Industrial Biennale.

Currently lives and works in exile following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
