About

Sasha Speranskii is a conceptual photographer whose work explores the human body as a landscape of involuntary biological truth. He focuses on the moments where shame, fear, and pleasure converge in the language of the skin — a phenomenon he defines through his ongoing project, Piloerection. 

This focus on the body’s involuntary signals is not abstract. In 2014, Speranskii survived a severe head trauma that left him relearning basic trust in his own body — a process that remains unresolved rather than completed. Encountering Ren Hang’s photography in 2023 did not represent healing so much as a redirection: a way of continuing to negotiate with a body that has already once acted without his consent. 

Moving beyond traditional fashion aesthetics, Speranskii captures the “honesty of the surface”: goosebumps, accidental gestures, and the stark, clinical light of a direct flash that strips away artifice. His work oscillates between the naive and the uncanny — a visual diary of bodies caught in the tension between desire and discomfort.

Current & Upcoming:

• Summer 2026 — Viafarini Art Residency (Milan, Italy).
• ImageNation Paris 2026 — Presenting the Piloerection series.

Based in Moscow, Speranskii is currently open for editorial collaborations and conceptual brand projects before his international circuit begins in April.
