About The Artwork

I think that the feeling of "home" is a big, tight tangle of our past, our feelings, physical characteristics, upbringing, capabilities, nervous system, level of personal development. We are surprisingly similar to each other in general and just as surprisingly different from each other in the combination of details. That's why the "home" is different for all of us. And the path to it will be of different complexity, despite the seemingly similar initial data. A huge number of factors, many of which arose before our birth, create this path. Therefore, some of us will find a home everywhere and in any form, it will be enough for them to overcome some internal conflicts or be surrounded by "their" people. And this is life. Others will feel at home only by creating a space where every millimeter simplifies their routine and serves their main goals. And this is life. There will also be those who, having actually a home, will not be able to overcome the past and allow themselves to accept this home. And this is life. Some will choose aspiration, others humility. This is also life. And someone will be bad in striving, and someone will be good in humility. And this is life. Life goes on right now. And within this story we have a very powerful tool - cognition of ourselves and other people. The ability to build a multi-faceted picture in your mind, exploring humanity and the world. And looking into this kaleidoscope, you can answer many questions for yourself, including: "where am I now and what do I feel, do I feel good here?", " what is home for me?", "do I need it as much as I think?", " what will I lose or gain in humility, and what in striving?» and so on and so on and so on. A lot of questions and answers that will help us get to know ourselves and, perhaps, find something special - a home within ourselves.

Hi!My name is Anita Crystaleva. I draw the ghosts of humanity in a dying universe. All my life I am looking for an answers to the questions: what is it to be a human and why do we exist? What will be left of humanity when the world is gone? What is the cosmic value of what we live, feel, and die? Are there any particles in the universe that will preserve the memory of us? My drawings are a fantasy about such particles. Surreal unstable ghosts of our experience of lives, our feelings, our technological achievements, momentarily visualized in this huge stream of memory particles of the universe seconds before its death. The goal of my art is to allow people to feel the full horror of the grandiose unknowable greatness of the universe and, drowning in this feeling, ask themselves "What is really valuable to me?" The formation of me as a person and as an artist was influenced by two things: The first is that I have been an atheist since I was 14 years old. I can't help it, I can't think otherwise. And I'm very afraid of death. On this side, my drawings are a lonely cry into a pitiless void that will take me and everything I hold dear. Second , I was raised by my mother, who always wanted to die as soon as possible. And she still wants it. On this side, my drawings are a reminder that there will be no second life and that every moment is now a value in itself. If you want to learn more about my vision, how I draw and what I reflect on, I blog on instagram. I will always be happy to talk to you.
