Yevgenia Davidoff

About

Yevgenia Davidoff is a Russian-born American artist whose work examines the poetic and emotional afterlives of mass-produced objects—revealing how memory, loss, (be)longing, and ecological-spiritual resonance inhabit the discarded materials of everyday life.

She studied drawing and painting at The Cooper Union, earned her BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York City, and an MA from the Fashion Institute of Technology. Davidoff has exhibited at Deitch Projects and the Dumbo Arts Festival (New York); ICOSA Gallery (Austin, Texas), curated by Annette DiMeo Carlozzi; TSA LA (Los Angeles); Texas State University Galleries (San Marcos, Texas); and the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft (Houston, Texas), where her work was selected by Abraham Thomas, the Daniel Brodsky Curator of Modern Architecture, Design, and Decorative Arts at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, from a field of more than 350 applicants.

In 2024, she and her husband and creative partner, Carlos Carrillo, were selected as an artist duo for the 2025 Texas Biennial in Houston. She was also recently selected for an upcoming 2026 exhibition at the UMLAUF Sculpture Garden + Museum in Austin, where she and Carrillo will debut a large-scale suspended installation.

Earlier in her career, Davidoff created a series of 37 original illustrations to accompany Hilma af Klint’s esoteric botanical notebooks, exhibited at Lightforms Art Center in Hudson, New York. From 2018 to 2019, she was a member of the ICOSA artist collective in Austin.

She lives with her family in Austin, Texas, and divides her studio time between Texas and Connecticut.
