Meat of the Future explores a paradoxical transformation: meat that is no longer meant to be eaten. The chromatic pig in the painting is not a symbol of consumption, but of presence — of aliveness reclaimed. With its glossy, iridescent surface, it appears engineered, futuristic, even artificial — yet it is precisely this synthetic glow that allows it to escape its traditional fate.
This is meat that runs through forests, that exists to exist, not to be slaughtered. It reflects a speculative turn where biotechnological creatures are no longer produced for utility, but for autonomy, visibility, and even companionship. In this vision, the body becomes a vessel of resistance — radiant, untouched, and unapologetically present.
The work questions our inherited perceptions of the edible, the beautiful, and the alive. What if the future of meat is not consumption, but liberation?

Kryvych is a contemporary multidisciplinary artist born in Kyiv, who studied art in both Kyiv and Madrid. Anna explores the mechanisms of human interaction with the world through artistic practice. Her works reveal deeper layers of reality, truth, and existence. She investigates themes of dehumanization, estrangement from nature, and immersion into artificial constructs that distort our connection to the essence of life. By creating visual narratives that resonate with philosophical and apocalyptic concepts, Anna seeks to uncover the hidden forces shaping human experience — particularly through the lens of presence and the exploration of extreme existential boundaries.
Working across painting, sculpture, and object-based installation, she reflects on the shifting boundary between the real and the simulated, the living body and its artificial extinction. Her recent works engage with themes of posthuman ecology, chromatic surfaces, and speculative anatomies — including chrome-finished animals, robots, and hybrid beings suspended between evolution and erasure. She often incorporates vacuum-sealed objects, metallic textures, and artificial skins to explore how presence can become a trace, and how nature begins to perform itself as image.
Kryvych’s artistic inquiry is guided by questions such as:
– What happens to corporeality in a world where everything can be copied?
– Can art still function as a site of resistance in a culture of seamless simulation?
– And is true desire still possible when experience is endlessly reproduced?
Her work has been exhibited in Madrid, Zurich, and the Museum of the History of Kyiv, as well as in numerous group and solo exhibitions across Ukraine and Europe. Recent exhibitions include The Sea (Stable Gallery, Vienna), Fragments (Eye Sea Gallery, Kyiv), Please softer (Octo Gallery, Kyiv), and Spanish Group Exhibition (Galeria Lanza Art, Madrid).
Kryvych’s works are part of private collections in Ukraine, Spain, and Switzerland.
