Maxim Wakultschik, born in 1973 in Minsk, Belarus, is a prominent contemporary artist known for his mathematically precise constructions and complex, multilayered works. He studied at the Belarusian High School of Arts and later enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in Düsseldorf, where he developed a fascination with spatial elements, materials, and the interplay of light and shadow. His art combines various independent elements into cohesive pieces, creating a formal order that challenges viewers' perceptions.
Wakultschik’s works often blur the lines between reality and illusion, inviting the audience to engage actively with the art. The slightest movement or change in perspective can dramatically alter the viewer's experience, transforming his pieces into kinetic objects. His exploration of color vibrations and surface structures adds depth to his creations, resulting in a dynamic interplay that captivates viewers​
His art has gained recognition worldwide, with exhibitions in cities like Budapest, Geneva, London, and Los Angeles. Wakultschik's work is part of significant collections, including the Odunpazari Modern Museum and the 21c Museum, reflecting his impact on contemporary art​.
