Commission an artwork by Ilya Yod
We can arrange and oversee the creation of a new work, made specifically for you.
The contemporary painter known as Ilya Yod is perhaps one of the most eccentric artists working today. His paintings and drawings combine striking visuals with strong concepts, and are known for their complex creative process based on extensive research. Marked by captivating colours, original shapes, and connection to art history, much of his artwork has been published in art magazines, including Creative Boom and Aesthetica, and have garnered increasing acclaim from art lovers worldwide.
The private artist, Ilya Yod, does not want his identity or history to be known to the wider public, and has released very little information about himself. After receiving his Bachelor of Emerging Practices from the École Européenne Supérieure de l'Image in Poitiers, France, in 2010, Ilya Yod has exhibited his paintings in more than fifteen international exhibitions, including the Skurril exhibition in 2018 at Marler Kunststern in Marl, Germany, the Sacred Art exhibition in 2019 at Saint-Pierre Cathedral in Senlis, France, and the Hide and Seek exhibition in 2022 at Skolkovo Innovation Centre in Moscow, Russia. In 2018, Yod's work was one of 100 selected for the prestigious Contemporary Visions international juried exhibition, hosted by the BEERS London gallery.
