Vasya Dmytryk ( b. 1991, Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine) graduated from the Grekova Art School in Odesa in 2016. He works mostly with sculptures and installations. Member of the SRZ-2 community.

In his practice, Dmytryk addresses cultural traditions of different times and ethnicities, his main theme of work being modern social and environmental phenomena, where Dmytryk achieves a critical view of them through the use of the metaphor of relevancy and the recontextualization of found objects.
