Yurii Yermolenko – A Master of Fine Arts (MFA), author of special, large-scale, monumental picturesque projects, set designer, art director (musical video), music video director, photographer, Facevinyl & RapanStudio Founder and CEO. Born in 1973 Kiev (Ukraine) Lives and works in Kiev. "LIVE PAINTING" One will never forget works painted by artist Yurii Yermolenko. They carry a rave of color, flexibility of motifs, and a very special reality. - Yurii, how long have you been living for painting? Creation of a painting, the plot, the canvas – is this an outburst of emotions, or reflection of your world outlook? - I believe that I began to live for painting even before I was born. The birth of a painting on canvass most of all resembles a rite, when you are led by some creative ecstasy, intuition. It should be noted however that the period preceding the creation of a painting is very interesting. Here, an entirely different scheme works, involving a great deal of analysis, collection of information, anthropological studies, maybe, travelling. - Your paintings are distinguished for intense colors. Does this reflect your temper, or the desire to add colors to everyday routine? - In the first place, it reflects my temper of an artist and a painter. When you paint a picture, it should sound in colors, as a good musical composition, this is the main thing. - You have a unique technique of execution – the images are smudgy and distinct at a time. What stands behind it? - I like it when a painting represents a deep picturesque space, full of special light, as if in a dream, in which, images can breathe and vibrate. - Who, or what, inspires you? - My dear muse, my angel of inspiration protects and helps me. And as far as the projects are concerned, they may be triggered by a beautiful dream or a journey. - What really encourages you – criticism, or commendation? - I am encouraged not by criticism or commendation, but by angels of inspiration. Criticism or commendation take place post factum, as a response to a work of art; both are helpful; the worst thing is when there is no response at all. - Please, tell us about your creative plans. - I will continue experimenting with techniques. By the way, my another project was a pure experiment with "flower-dotted" fabric – this decorative pattern dictates the figurative space. MAGIC WOMAN magazine, Culture (section)
