Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
The Personality derives from the Latin word Persona. In ancient theater, it was a mask, worn by an actor playing different roles in the same play. We try on our first masks in early childhood, when our parents form our behavior to their expectations. Our ability to wear masks grows with us. Soon we have a special mask with its own voice intonation, gestures and clothes for every occasion. At certain point we cannot remember ourselves and the mask becomes us. We hold on to the mask, permanently checking how firmly it sits on our face, so nobody can rip it off, revealing what we are trying to hide behind it. Unfortunately or fortunately, being someone else is really difficult, consuming huge resources of life. Carrying a fragile mental construct on the face is unsafe. Fear of losing our face is a constant concern. All attention is directed to the integrity of the mask, surrounding people are noted less and less, increasing alienation. The mask is reactive, it is not able to develop spiritually, to create and to be free in its actions. Being ourselves is to remember who we really are, why we came to this world, what we brought here and what we will take back. Artwork comes hand signed and numbered with certificate of authenticity.

Ukraine
Mikhail was born on February 22, 1984 in Kherson, Ukraine in a family of ship cooks. His childhood and youth were spent on the ruins of the communist era with all the ensuing consequences. He followed the footsteps of his parents to the maritime officer career at sea, gained financial independence, but no satisfaction. Looking for senses, he started to experiment with digital photography solely as a hobby. That all changed in 2009, when he first saw realistic digital collages. Since then, he has been actively working and developing in this genre, getting satisfaction from creating artworks with spiritual and philosophical meaning. Experimenting with techniques and images, he discovered his own style to convey both rational and sensual sides of his world. He uses artistic practice as a tool for exploring and transforming himself. Since 2014 his single artworks and projects have received more than 60 awards in international professional photography contests, including International Photography Awards, Prix de la Photographie Paris, Sony World Photography Awards, ND Awards, Tokyo International Photography Awards, OneEyeland Photography Awards, Moscow International Photography Awards. He was featured in digital and printed publications worldwide.
