About Dmytro Andrukhov

Dmytro Andrukhov is a Ukrainian-born multidisciplinary light artist based in Chicago. His work combines painting, graffiti markers, acrylic, UV print, LED neon, and mixed media to create illuminated artworks that sit between contemporary art, street visual language, and architectural light.

Through LumiDim, Andrukhov develops a personal visual practice built around contrast, emotion, memory, and urban energy. His works often combine hand-drawn marks, layered surfaces, printed imagery, glowing lines, and controlled light to create pieces that feel both raw and precise.

Rather than treating neon only as decoration, he uses light as part of the artwork’s structure. A glowing line can become a signal, a trace, a border, or a memory. Paint, markers, acrylic, and printed layers give the work texture and physical presence, while light adds atmosphere and psychological depth.

His practice reflects the experience of movement, displacement, identity, and adaptation. Born in Ukraine and now working in Chicago, Andrukhov uses visual fragments, color, symbols, and illuminated forms to explore how personal memory and urban culture shape the way people experience space.

LumiDim is the studio where this language continues to develop — a body of work connecting light, material, drawing, print, and contemporary visual storytelling.

In addition to his independent art practice, Andrukhov is the founder of City Neon, a Chicago-based studio focused on illuminated brand environments and custom light-based installations.
