Viktor Fuček
About the artist
Viktor Fuček is a transmedia artist, academic, and urban shaman whose practice explores the body as a dynamic site of transformation and meaning. Working across performance, visual art, experimental sound, text, and spatial interventions, he investigates the body in its multiple manifestations, from biological and social systems to urban environments and global neural networks. He understands the body as both a vessel and a medium through which biological, cultural, planetary, and universal dimensions intersect.
His interdisciplinary practice moves fluidly between performance, installation, painting, experimental music, and architectural thinking, creating works that examine the relationships between space, perception, ritual, and technology.
Fuček graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague and studied fine arts at the Australian National University in Canberra, the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, and the University of Applied Arts Vienna (Die Angewandte). He also studied architecture at the Faculty of Architecture of the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. In 2022, he completed his PhD with the dissertation The Architecture of Internal Relationships, which examined transitional territories between architecture and performance.
His work has been presented at numerous exhibitions and international art events. In 2015, he was shortlisted for the Oskar Čepan Award for Slovak emerging artists, and in 2024 he received the Benhoode Foundation Award for painting.
He is currently an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Academy of Arts, Slovakia and a researcher and external lecturer at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.
Architecture of Inner Relations
Movement–spatial performance about people’s inner relationship architecture. The performance explored how human presence, emotion, and memory are inscribed in architectural space, and how architecture, in turn, shapes our inner structures — our sense of self, belonging, and orientation. Through movement, gesture, and spatial composition, the work examined the dialogue between body and environment, intimacy and monumentality, permanence and transience. Performer used his body as instruments of perception, tracing invisible boundaries and resonances within the space, uncovering how architecture can become an extension of psychological and social experience. The work was presented at Theater Pôtoň, Slovakia, in 2018.
