Artist's Work, #21 Painting

Series «Artist’s work», oil, cardboard, magnet, 5х5 cm, 9,5х9,5 cm, 2022. What is the difference between an artist's work and a builder's work? Is the construction of buildings more important than the construction of meanings? How to explain to the public what an artist does? Is society ready to pay for what appears to be sitting on the couch on the outside, but is it a thinking process on the inside? Why do I consider statements "starving artist" and "art beyond politics" as children of russian propaganda? Answering these questions, I created a project on the edges of research and art therapy. A series of oil artworks and video documentation of the process with the author's reflections became its result. You can watch video by the link - https://youtu.be/x6cwsg1ltTw
