Troika are Eva Rucki, Conny Freyer and Sebastien Noel, who met while studying at the Royal College of Art, and subsequently started their London-based studio in 2003. Troika is widely known for its experiential artworks and its practice is positioned at the junction where art, architecture, and technical inventions intersect. Notable in their formal simplicity and sense of humour, Troika's installations and sculptures engage the viewer in an often playful, sometimes contemplative manner. The three work with craftsmen, engineers, researchers, and scientists and create multi-layered objects, installations, sculptures and exhibitions.
Since establishing the studio in 2003 Troika's work has been exhibited, amongst others, at the Victoria & Albert Museum London, The Art Institute of Chicago, Tate Britain and MoMA New York. In 2010 Troika were selected to create three art installations for the UK Pavillion at the World Expo Shanghai.
Troika's work is represented in the permanent collections of the British Council, The Art Institute of Chicago, Victoria and Albert Museum and the Museum Of Modern Art New York.
Troika has authored two books to date: Digital by Design, Thames and Hudson, 2008; Moscow Style, Booth - Clibborn Editions, 2005, and, in 2009, won the D&AD Yellow Pencil for their digital sculpture 'Cloud' in London Heathrow Terminal 5.
