About The Artwork
Dive into 'Foreboding,' a captivating masterpiece created by the talented Ukrainian artist Zakhar Shevchuk. This semi-abstract oil on canvas painting, measuring 60x80 cm, presents a profound narrative through its intricate composition. The canvas is dominated by a vivid blue-green expanse of water, its surface dramatically disturbed as it approaches the horizon. Towering, wave-like shapes, tinged with yellow and brown, ascend towards the sky, forming an unsettling, tumultuous atmosphere. Even the seemingly calm waters in the lower portion of the painting carry a sense of chaotic motion. Shevchuk's artistic technique shines through in 'Foreboding.' The rough brushwork creates a textured background, while expressive charcoal lines infuse the scene with energy and dynamism. The color palette of blues and greens, contrasted with whites, yellows, and reds on the horizon and within the clouds, enhances the painting's visual impact. The inspiration behind 'Foreboding' is deeply rooted in a real-world event—the 2023 breach of the Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine. This catastrophic event, which occurred during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, led to extensive flooding along the Dnieper River. The dam's breach, suspected to be an act by Russian forces, had severe consequences, including loss of life and significant damage to the region. Shevchuk's artwork captures the calm yet potent undercurrents of this tragedy. Zakhar Shevchuk, born in Ukraine in 1992, is a rising star in the art world. Holding a master's degree in arts from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in Kyiv, he now imparts his knowledge as a teacher at the academy. His artworks grace both public and private collections worldwide, and he actively contributes to public projects, including mural paintings and monumental installations.

Art, to me, is a profound exploration of the world that surrounds us - a journey of discovery, experience, and self-understanding. It is a medium through which I unravel the essence of things - their colors, forms, and the interplay between them. I believe in the power of simplicity, in the art of removing the excess and uncovering the necessary, much like a sculptor chisels away at stone. In my paintings, I strive to distill forms to their purest essence, reaching a point where nothing else can be removed without sacrificing meaning. The "necessary" elements, as I perceive them, remain, serving as conduits for my impressions and self-reflections on the subject at hand. My aim is not to depict something specific but rather to transfer the emotions and thoughts evoked by the object onto the canvas. I seek artistic forms that can boldly and vividly capture the essence of these feelings, rather than mere visual representation. In this pursuit, my work often exists on the precipice between figurative and abstract art - place where emotions take precedence over strict visual interpretation. Through my art, I invite viewers to embark on their own contemplative journeys, to interpret the subtleties and engage with the interplay of emotions and forms. Each brushstroke carries the weight of my perceptions, inviting you to join me in this exploration of the human experience. zakhar@klossart.com
