Uli Golub

Uli Golub (*1990 in Kharkiv, Ukraine) lives and works in Oakland, California. She was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, where she studied philology at the V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. In 2016, she completed her studies at the Rodchenko School of Photography and Multimedia in Moscow under the mentorship of artist Sergey Bratkov. Her artistic practice includes video, installation, performance, photography and mixed-media collages. Storytelling forms the basis of her work. Fascinated by speculative fiction, cosmism and futurism, the artist is interested in constructing narratives that inspire viewers to dream of possible new realities, relationships and the deconstruction of power dynamics.
