Diana Tarhonii & Vladyslav Prozorenko
Diana Tarhonii and Vladyslav Prozorenko form the artistic duo PROZZORRR, known for their conceptual sculptures. Both are graduates of the Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts.
Their works explore themes of transformation, social issues, and personal experiences, often featuring bold statements and complex compositions. They have exhibited Sci-Fi Art at PORTAL11 Art Gallery (2024) and Fragments at Eye.Sea.Gallery (2024-2025) in Kyiv. Their works are part of private collections around the world, including Canada, the USA, the UK, France, Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Australia, and Qatar.
Their practice was featured in interviews for the Return On Art Gallery (2022) and Les Nouveaux Riches Magazine (2024). In 2023, they were shortlisted for a grant from Ukrainian Culture Mondays.
As artists PROZZORRR merge language and visual art through mosaics from letters. Personal and societal experiences, the flux of the contemporary world, and history have a significant influence on their artistic endeavors. Their vibrant artworks featuring sharp phrases and questions aim to provoke thought and challenge perceptions. Through this unique synthesis, artists strive to create pieces that are both visually captivating and intellectually stimulating.
Wood, plywood, acrylic, and form are currently the main components that help them create, convey, or amplify various meanings. But they continuously experiment and explore new materials, thereby expanding the arsenal of tools for communicating with the audience.
Artworks
The striking contrast between light blue letter forms that spell out the phrase “All You Can Touch” and the bold orange frame draws attention to a pressing social issue — the limited access to material resources in a consumption-driven society.This artwork challenges the perception of freedom and choice: can one truly “touch everything” in a world where social, economic, and political factors often restrict access to goods? It questions notions of ownership, availability, and consumer culture, urging viewers to rethink their desires and limitations.Through its ironic phrase and engaging design, the sculpture provokes thought, inviting a dialogue on what it truly means to have access in an increasingly stratified world.
A sculpture that hides the phrase "Time to take a risk" amidst the chaos of letters and reflects the relentless rhythm of modern life, where individuals constantly face decisions requiring courage and adaptability.In a world driven by rapid technological advancements, shifting societal norms, and unpredictable challenges, risk becomes an inevitable part of progress. The vivid red “RISK” stands out, symbolizing the urgency and intensity of these pivotal moments.This message resonates with all of us — the pressure to step outside our comfort zones, embrace uncertainty, and find new opportunities is something we deeply understand and experience. The artwork invites viewers to confront their fears and recognize that meaningful growth often comes from daring to take a chance amidst the chaos of everyday life.
This sculpture captures the struggle to find balance in a chaotic world. The phrase “Where is this fucking balance?” hidden among fragmented pink shapes reflects the complexity of modern life — torn between good and evil, joy and sorrow, peace and turmoil.The deliberate use of pink — traditionally linked to comfort, hope, and gentleness — clashes with the raw frustration of the main question and the imbalance of forms.The message feels especially raw during wartime. Daily life becomes a surreal contrast: walking through a peaceful city, sipping coffee in the sunshine, and spending nights in bomb shelters, hiding from missile attacks. Living amidst such extremes makes the pursuit of balance feel almost impossible.Beyond our own experience, this sculpture speaks to anyone navigating the contradictions of contemporary existence.
