Tommy Cash
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Born in ’91, in the last year of the Soviet Union, Tommy Cash experienced a blend of the Baltic ghetto and the lingering Russian heritage while growing up. Turning to art for self-expression, he experimented with dancing, hip-hop and street art, finally arriving at his latest conquest – music. His creativity derives from the cultural capital of post-Soviet sceneries and the sounds of the leaders of western rap music. Unpacking the layers of Tommy Cash, you’ll find a genuine admiration for the iconic three stripes Adidas, equestrianism, Russian carpets and Kanye West – all of which construct the conceptual artist capable of smashing preconceptions and transcending boundaries of sexuality, genres and history.
