Filipp Borisenok — A World in Motion 

I’m an artist and a professional dancer. Dancing has shaped my way of prospective: it has sharpened my sense of rhythm, space, and connection with the world around me. Painting has become a natural extension of that — a way to explore people, places, and events in the light of movement.

Everything moves — the body, the time, language, our inner reality. And I try to capture that motion visually. What I’m interested in is not the result, but the process itself: the way one form melts into another, the way a line continues beyond the edge, the way a gesture becomes a feeling.

I work in an abstract style that leaves room for interpretation and invites the viewer to participate. My primary medium is acrylic — it’s flexible and allows me to play with density, transparency, and texture, from airy softness to rich, physical presence. I often use the 80×60 cm format — it gives me the freedom to work even in small spaces, while keeping the work intimate and focused.

People sometimes call my paintings “interior” and I see that not as a compromise, but as a position. It matters to me that a painting doesn’t just deliver an idea, but rather becomes a part of the space it is in. I want art to be approachable, not distant — something that lives with you, breathes with you, and changes alongside with you.

I’m drawn to crossing boundaries and searching for new forms of expression. Looking ahead, I’m planning to expand into larger formats, video art, spatial objects, and installations — works that can enter into conversation with both space and the viewer.

About. Filipp Borisenok

It takes a certain courage to stay true to abstract art in our age of clever concepts and meaning games. You could say that the Borisenok family has become the knights of this direction. Just recently, the Belyaevo Gallery hosted the finissage of a large-scale exhibition curated by Dmitry Butkevich and Karina Borisenok, featuring works from the father’s collection as well as pieces by the son — who, having grown up surrounded by paintings, has clearly absorbed a deep sense of color, composition, and refined taste from an early age.

The works from his father’s collection have undoubtedly influenced Filipp, who is now emerging as a distinctive and original artist. He draws on the traditions of his predecessors — you can clearly see the echoes of American neo-expressionism and abstraction. Yet he reinterprets and adapts these influences in his own way, developing a style that feels entirely his own.
