Peter Goloshchapov ​was born in 1982 in Moscow. In 2005, he graduated from the Moscow State Stroganov Academy of Industrial and Applied Arts. He was a grant winner of the Ministry of Culture of the RF in 2005, 2008 and 2012. In 2012 completed an internship at the Central Saint Martin’s College of Art and Design in London. Work and live in Moscow CrocodilePOWER ​is a group founded in 2011 by two Russian artists: PeterGoloshchapov (born in 1982) and OksanaSimatova (born in 1979). Working in a group has become a new creative experience for both. They turned to the theme of studying today’s world and the place of man in it. CrocodilePOWER create mythologies somewhere between fantasy and reality, between technology and nature. They realize them in projects that unite different art objects: painting, sculpture, and installations. CrocodilePOWER painting depict landscapes of dystopia, and in sculpture, their characters are created from fiberglass, porcelain, wood, moss, bark, iron, and other materials. In their projects, the artists try to achieve the sense of “augmented reality”, where fictional is so organically built into a reality we know, that its existence seems possible (either in the past, present and future). Participants of the International Biennale of Vallauris (2014) and the Moscow International Biennale for Young Art (2014, 2016). In 2015, a solo exhibition of the group was held at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art. Their works are part of numerous private collections in Russia and abroad. “Since​ our first project to the present day, ceramics have played an important role in our creative activity. Working with porcelain is a process of constant experimentation. We very often combine porcelain with fiberglass and natural materials, which serves to further highlight the properties of porcelain and show them from a new angle. Many of our ideas have their first incarnation in porcelain — it assists us in our further work with big forms and other materials” Selected exhibitions: Solo shows 2017​ ​ - TGHNN​ ​CrocodilePOWER/Sandor Szasz Triumph gallery, Moscow - Life​ in the lonely wood.​ Mobius gallery, Bucharest, Romania - Insomnia.​ ​VLADEY Space.
