Maksym Razdobudko is a sound artist working between installation and freeform electronics. His practice centers on field recordings, controlled noise, and archaic rhythm — material that resists genre and accumulates meaning through serendipity and pressure.
His debut EP RE: (2025, self-released) is a document of fatherhood and war: air raid sirens, unplugged bass, found sound, assembled from the weight of a specific moment. Featured in A Closer Listen.
In collaboration with artist Maria Kulykivska, he builds spatial sound environments where audio is a structural condition, not atmosphere. Recent works include the Bullets of Flowers pavilion at the 2026 Malta Biennale and Kyiv Breathing, a sound landscape for Pax Christi church in Krefeld, Germany.
His multimedia installation Penelope’s Dreams, created with Polina Choni and psychoanalyst Teta Tsybulnyk, was presented at Garage33 Gallery-Shelter, Kyiv (2026). Also with Tsybulnyk — a soundtrack for her video essay I Am a Rock (2024), built on Simon & Garfunkel’s song. While the director traces the links between language, nature, and representation, Razdobudko turns a human’s song into a stone’s.
