Biography
My name is Sagynbek Ulanov, and I am a director and art director from Kyrgyzstan, born and raised in the northern village Kochkor. In my works, I strive to reinterpret the cultural heritage of Central Asia, blending traditional imagery with a modern artistic language. My main goal is to reveal the depth and uniqueness of the nomadic being, revive lost visual codes and historical symbols. I explore questions on the influence of the colonial past on the region’s culture, and the relationship between mythology and contemporary reality. As a director and art director, I pay special attention to details: costumes, scenography, color schemes, and overall atmosphere. This allows me to create visuals that resonate not only with audiences in Central Asia but also on international platforms. My works are not just films or visual art - they are a dialogue between generations, a bridge between the past and the present. Currently create art and additional collaborations in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan and Almaty, Kazakhstan.
