Siia Tilinin is a multidisciplinary artist working at the intersection of live performance, digital cinema, and spatial installation. Her practice investigates the architecture of psychological entrapment and the pre-verbal thresholds of human consciousness. Using the stage as a laboratory, Siia creates "containment zones"—immersive environments where the individual negotiates the friction between visceral human instinct and unfeeling, systemic structures.

​

Siia blends raw physical performance with synthetic media to expose the tension between the body and the virtual landscape. Born in Ukraine and shaped by a subsequent nomadic experience across four countries in young adulthood, her work is inherently informed by the condition of displacement and a state of perpetual becoming.  Rejecting linear narrative in favour of liminal, recursive structures, her practice functions as a series of systemic stress tests, interrogating memory, moral ambiguity, and the cost of survival in an irredeemable present.

Siia holds a BA in Experimental Arts and Performance from The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, and previously completed a year of studies in Intermedia and Experimental Film at the University of Fine Arts in Poznań. Her early creative development was previously marked by extensive international exposure in childhood, exhibiting painting and multimedia work in showcases across Ukraine, Lithuania, Japan, and Russia—a formative period that established an early, lifelong engagement with trans-cultural visual storytelling.

Working across forms and in collaboration with interdisciplinary collectives, Siia produces environments that prioritise somatic intensity and narrative fragmentation. Her work seeks to uncover the mythic seeds that persist beneath cultural surfaces, exploring what survives when all external structures of meaning have been stripped away.
