SASHA X SASHA IS THE RESULT OF A COLLABORATION BETWEEN ALEXANDRA GINEVA AND ALEXANDER DOBROVSKI, BOTH GRADUATES OF THE MOSCOW ARCHITECTURAL INSTITUTE AND HOLDERS OF A MASTER’S DEGREE IN ARCHITECTURE FROM ST. LUCAS UNIVERSITY IN THE 2010s. THEY FOUNDED MASTERSKAYA IN 2013 BEFORE ESTABLISHING THEIR OWN STUDIO, SASHA X SASHA, IN PARIS IN 2019.

SINCE 2020, THEY HAVE TAKEN PART IN NUMEROUS EXHIBITIONS ACROSS EUROPE, INCLUDING IN PARIS, MOSCOW, AND MILAN.

THEIR MAIN SOURCE OF INSPIRATION COMES FROM TEMPORARY FURNITURE CREATED AND BUILT FROM FOUND MATERIALS BY CONSTRUCTION WORKERS IN RUSSIA. BY USING LEFTOVER CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS AND WHATEVER THEY CAN FIND, THESE WORKERS MAKE ESSENTIAL OBJECTS FOR THEIR DAILY LIVES, SUCH AS TABLES OR BENCHES — A PRACTICE THAT DEEPLY RESONATES WITH SASHA X SASHA’S CREATIVE APPROACH.
