Biography
Vaxo Lang, born on March 28, 1993, in Tbilisi, Georgia, is a self-taught artist renowned for his unique style. His journey in art began during his childhood, and this passion continued to grow throughout his adolescence. Later in life, he relocated to Germany, where he spent a significant portion of his years honing his craft and exploring various artistic expressions.
In recent years, Lang has delved into the realm of "psycho horror" in his creations, delving deep into the intricacies of the human psyche. His work confronts a plethora of fears, horrors, nightmares, and psychological challenges that resonate with individuals in their everyday lives. Lang's art is characterized by its extremity, often portraying the darkest facets of human existence.
Lang's artistic journey has been one of resilience and determination. He has faced numerous obstacles and battled various fears and difficulties alone, drawing from these experiences to infuse his work with raw emotion and authenticity. Despite the hardships he has encountered, Lang remains dedicated to his craft, pouring his time, energy, and health into his art.
On February 7, 2024, artist Vaxo Lang made a bold and controversial decision: he burned all of his artwork. This act was a deliberate protest against what he saw as the prevailing norms and values in the art world. Lang argued that the works of deceased artists are often more highly esteemed and valued by society than those of living artists.
Despite the ensuing controversy, Vaxo Lang remains steadfast in his principles. He continues to express his views through various mediums, refusing to be silenced by the backlash. His decision to destroy his own work serves as a powerful commentary on the commodification of art, challenging the notion that artistic value is solely determined by market forces.

Made an account on here just to give Mr. Lang some appreciation. When asked who are some of my favorite contemporary artists, my mind immediately goes to him. I’ve encountered Vaxo lang on different social media accounts and always make sure to keep up with his paintings. As an avid horror art fan there is something about them that appeals to me greatly. I think his style, while clearly virtuosic in terms of composition, also has a flair of primitivism. I can’t help but feel there is a degree of intentional self-otherizing of the authorial perspective evident in the paintings. I expect to find Vaxo’s paintings in the boarded up caves of solar-flared worlds, in alternate universes where man met his grizzly end much too early, or even in our own world, inside yet undiscovered back rooms. I find the use of universal horror imagery to be very immersing, and frees his work from the nauseating search for signs of autobiography in art, especially in the sordid and morbid. Horror art for me represents the pure radiance of human imagination, the ability to reconfigure the traditional spectrum of positive and negative emotions into a mobius strip where utmost terror and joy are reflected in the same intensity. Vaxo captures this abstract notion quite well. I am in the midst of writing a novel centering on horror art and scientific ethics, his paintings have been endlessly inspiring for this purpose.
angry artist, but artist over all.
i love your work.

Ihre Kunst ist der Beweis dafür, dass Kunst nicht schön sein muss - wie viele immer glauben oder meinen. Wobei Ihre Ugly-Art schon extrem bedrückend und gruselig ist, und ich glaube dass Sie innere Konflikte verarbeiten? Falls ich mich täusche, sorry! Mir gefallen Ihre Bilder allerdings nicht, sie wirken absolut destruktiv und verstörend. Trotzdem gut, dass es auch Künstler wie Sie gibt, die das Böse oder Unheilvolle thematisieren.
Her art is proof that art doesn't have to be beautiful - as many always believe or think. Although your ugly nature is extremely depressing and creepy, and I believe that you are dealing with inner conflicts? If I'm wrong, sorry! However, I don't like your pictures, they seem absolutely destructive and disturbing. Still, it's good that there are artists like you who focus on evil or sinister things.
Nombre de vos peintures sont très très très puissantes. Elles me transpercent telles des flèches gelées, et vont direct rejoindre en moi ce qui fait mal. Merci d'exister, vous qui savez exprimer ce que je ne sais pas faire. Vous avez vraiment énormément de talent et êtes à mes yeux un grand artiste.
Many of your paintings are very, very, very powerful. They pierce me like frozen arrows, and go straight to what hurts inside me. Thank you for existing, you who know how to express what I cannot do. You really have enormous talent and are, in my eyes, a great artist.
