Anastasiia Leliuk (b. 1997, Luhansk) is a multidisciplinary Ukrainian artist based in Kyiv.
She primarily works with painting, sculpture, photography and installation, while occasionally incorporating other experimental elements such as video, sound, performance, and interactive processes. Her works reflect on vulnerability, loss, utopias, and the mythologization of the unknown, by activating explorations of personal and local histories, including contemporary experiences of war, displacement, and associated traumas. She has participated in numerous residencies and artistic programs in Ukraine and abroad, and her works have been shown widely in Ukraine, as well as in the UK, Netherlands, France, Austria, Poland, and Japan.
In additional to her personal practice, she has been a leader in mosaic restoration projects in Kyiv since 2018, and in 2025 she cofounded the monumental mosaic collective 3atyrka.
She holds a BFA from the National Academy of Fine Arts in Kyiv, a BA from IAE Metz School of Management in Metz, France. and certificates in Contemporary Art and Memorialization and Memory Work from Kyiv Academy of Media Art.
