Hryhorii
Kvartsianyi

Actor, sound producer and multidisciplinary artist. Ukrainian, based in Barcelona.

On screen

Television, independent short film and music videos. On set I keep the inner line of a character steady, whether the scene is a hospital ward, a two-minute vertical drama or a stylised video shoot.

On stage

My stage work starts at the desk. For my Master's thesis I took apart the male lead of Duncan Macmillan's Lungs, and I bring the same close reading to every role.

Alongside classical productions I perform new writing in staged readings and test how far the body alone can carry a story in physical theatre.

Documentary theatre

In Witnesses we recorded interviews with real people and turned their testimony into a live performance.

I then joined an interactive historical performance at the Museum of Ukrainian Identity, inside the Motherland Monument in Kyiv. Both showed me how a stage can hold raw memory and national heritage.

Yunak

As Yunak I make beats, direct my own music videos and play live, from improvised jams to full band shows.

With my former band I released a debut album and a limited Yunak clothing collection. A highlight so far: sharing a stage with Ukrainian rapper OTOY and performing one of my own tracks.

Official videos. Concept, music and direction by Yunak.

Solidarity convoy

Art has a practical job in a crisis. Through 2026 I'm making content for a humanitarian convoy driving from Barcelona to Ukraine, raising awareness and aid for civilians affected by the war.

I write, act and design sound for the campaign's videos. Follow the convoy on Instagram.
