Elle Muliarchyk

To create her art works, Elle works alone and embraces the inherent danger and spontaneity as part of her method.(Despite being mugged and mistakenly arrested) She is tirelessly creating new projects that confront luxury on her own terms while addressing numerous social issues.The New York Times termed her technique as “Pretty Larceny” and notes “Elle Muliarchyk has been evicted from fashion boutiques around the world, she is an artist and what she steals are fashion moments.


Elle Muliarchyk: Born in Belarus, grew up in Vietnam. "My parents were diplomats, so it was a fun childhood. The first thing I had to do there was eating monkey’s brain. Our spiritual teacher in Vietnam was Dali Lama’s former student - and a biotechnolgist! so I learned a lot of magic and science from him. Then Prague, the greatest place to be a Punk Lolita, I was a disco queen, and had to constantly resist Sex predators who were very “fashionable” and populous in Prague at that time. Came to California at around 15. There my adventures include living with a Chinese new born Christian family and then with a Mormon family. 


In pursuit of Supermodel-dom I finally came to NYC and, as the legend goes, was discovered by Patrick Demarchelier. Then follows a relatively predictable modeling career, and finally art career - when I return into exciting world of getting mugged, arrested etc etc. "
