YOOMOOTA

Taras Yoom, creator of the Yoomoota universe, develops a multidisciplinary practice that merges collectible design, sculpture, and narrative art. Born in Ukraine and based in Bangkok, he constructs an immersive cosmos populated by hybrid characters, biomorphic furniture, and symbolic objects. His work reflects on contemporary society through allegory, examining desire, addiction, childhood memory, and the fragile balance between technology and humanity. Each piece functions as a fragment of a larger mythology, inviting viewers into a speculative world where play and critique coexist within meticulously crafted forms, bridging imagination with cultural observation and psychological insight across global exhibitions and collections worldwide.

At the core of his practice lies rigorous research into medicine, biology, and social behavior, which informs the symbolic language of Yoomoota. Sculptures and objects are conceived through experimental processes combining traditional craftsmanship with advanced fabrication techniques. Each work translates complex realities into accessible, emotionally charged forms for contemporary audiences.

Through collectible chess sets, iconic characters such as Pillman, and immersive installations, Taras Yoom constructs a parallel narrative about power, vulnerability, and transformation. His biomorphic furniture challenges functional conventions, while paintings expand the mythology into surreal landscapes inhabited by symbolic figures. By merging satire with refinement, he reveals the tensions underlying consumer culture and the pursuit of happiness. Yoom’s works are exhibited internationally and included in private collections, affirming his position within contemporary collectible design. Ultimately, Yoomoota stands as a speculative mirror of our era, where fiction becomes a tool for reflection and awareness, addressing identity, ethics, and imagination collectively.
