About The Artwork

Baldur languishes in Hel, and only his eyes and a dim glow reach us....According to this myth, Baldur was very afraid of death, and at some point saw it in a dream. And since his dreams always came true, he hastened to warn his mother – Frigga, the wife of Odin. Then Frigga took an unbreakable oath from every object in the world-living and inanimate-that it would not harm Baldur (quote from the Younger Edda: "From fire and water, from metals of war, stones and trees, diseases and poisons, birds and animals..."). The only object that the goddess did not take an oath from was the mistletoe – looking at the young shoot, Frigga decided that it was too young and harmless.According to a stupid joke of Loki, Baldur was killed by a mistletoe sprout and fell into the world of rejected souls-Hel.The painting is made in enamel on canvas pasted on cardboard in 2021.

I was born in Moscow on 28 May 1974,began study paiting in 1981,graduated art school in Moscow 1991,studied in private art Studio 1991-1993.I began to paint as much as I can remember from 4 years of age ,since the late 80's I have been the author of more than 500 paintings,200 collages,100 sculptures and many drawings.Throughout his career ,the artist tried to draw everything that came to hand: emulsion paints, technical oil paints ,a variety of varnishes,acrylic paints ,gouache,watercolor,paint on metal,painted with tinting pastes mixed with water,crushed bricks, bitumen and of course the classic oil paints.I tried to experiment in all the styles of painting from realism to avant-garde.Experimenting, with different styles ,came to the conclusion that most gravitate to surrealism,and Russian Avant-garde of the early 20th years,very much in the mood to make collages,a bit still do sculpture.
