Born in Kyiv in 1991, Nickita Tsoy was raised in a creative family. This allowed him to develop his drawing skills within a creative environment that encouraged freedom of self-expression.

He attended two art schools and graduated from the National Academy of Visual Arts and Architecture (2010-2016) and the Kyiv Academy of Media Arts (2018-2019). 

Nickita Tsoy explores the construction of a historical narrative shaped by the post-ideological climate of recent decades. He views the individual as a vessel of ideological consciousness, examining their inner foundations and the tension between self-acceptance and internal dissonance. His work, rooted in cynical realism, offers a critical perspective on social, political, and cultural issues, with painting as his primary medium.
