About The Artwork

Lilith (Hebrew. לילית) is the first wife of Adam in the Kabbalistic theory. Mentioned in some early apocryphal stories of the Christianity which are not included in the biblical Canon. In the Hebrew text of Isaiah, which tells of the desolation of the Edomites after Divine judgment (ISA. 34:14), predicted the appearance of night Ghost (lilith). Mentioned in the Dead sea Scrolls, the Alphabet of Ben-Sira, the Zohar. According to legend, after leaving Adam, Lilith became an evil demon, killing babies (this character is present in Arab mythology). In the mythology of Ancient Mesopotamia, like the name of a night demon that kills children and makes fun of a sleeping man (also mentioned men "Lila"). The name Lilith is found in the Epic of Gilgamesh in the second Millennium BC. In Semitic languages, particularly in Hebrew, this word is a feminine adjective "night" (for example, Hebrew. דממה לילית — "dmama Lalit" — the silence of the night). In addition, in Hebrew (and possibly in other Semitic languages) the word "Lilith" is referred to the bird owl, a variety of owls. Most likely, that is why Lilith is sometimes depicted with an owl. There is also a view that the name comes from the Sumerian "Lil" (air, wind; spirit, Ghost). Possibly true, all points of view. Vladimir Yemelyanov in the Preface to "Assyrian magic," Charles Fosse writes the following: "a boy and a girl-Lilith — demons, in the name which is a play of words from different languages. Sumarski Lille means "air, wind; spirit, Ghost" in the Akkadian Lilu — "the night". Hence the mixture of ideas: the demons of this kind thought of the night ghosts. Most likely, they can be matched with the Slavic salonami the dead — that is, with people dying an unnatural death early. In any case, they always differ from Gadim — ordinary spirits of the dead ancestors (although for the latter a characteristic unusual deaths). It's possible that people turned into spirits, Lila, was unmarried and left no offspring. This can explain the tendency men-Lila to have relations with earth women (and from these relationships, they are either freaks or same demons)". Legends about the origin of Lilith[edit | edit wiki text] According to the Alphabet of Ben-Sira, Adam's first wife was Lilith.[4] She did not wish to obey her husband, as viewed himself as a creation of God Jehovah's[6] like Adam. Uttering the secret name of God, Yahweh, Lilith rose into the air and flew away from Adam. Then Adam turned to Yahweh with a complaint against a fleeing wife. Yahweh sent three angels in pursuit, known under the names of the Seine, Sansenoy and Semangelof (Snvi, Snsvi, and Smnglof) .[7] The three angels caught up with Lilith at the red sea, and she flatly refused to return to her husband.[5] After threats to kill her, Lilith swore she was sent by God, and that, while its "function" is the killing of babies, she'd spare any child protected by the amulet or plaque with her name (or the names of angels). The angels punished her. There are three versions of this sentence in the literature: hundreds of its babies will die every night; she's doomed to give birth to children of the demons; or God will make her infertile. In the Jewish home hairy and winged Lilith is especially known as viditelna of childbirth. It was believed that it not only brings damage to the babies, but also taking them, drinking the blood of newborns, sucking the marrow from the bones and replaces them. She also attributed the damage pregnant women and infertility of women. It is the legends that speak of Lilith as a killer of newborns, explains the tradition to hang an amulet with the names of the angels by the child of a Jewish child.[4] the Amulets and charms for mothers against Lilith should contain not only the names of the three angels who tried to return it, but some of the names most Lilith: Batna (womb), Odem (redness) or Amorfo (a form). Also with this legend is connected with the tradition of tying a red thread on the hand (usually the baby) — it is believed that Lilith is afraid of red color. Especially dangerous is the night before the circumcision of the baby to protect the child from Lilith, his father had all night to read passages from the Zohar and other books of Kabbalah. Lilith in Kabbalistic tradition[edit In the Kabbalah, Lilith — the devil being in the dream of unmarried young men and seducing them.[4] According to the Treatise on the left emanation, from when Lilith and Samael was born blind Dragon. Dragon castrated, "so that the eggs of the Viper (echidna) are not hatched into the world." Those who hatch from such eggs are called Lilin. They are entirely covered with hair, except only the head. In the Middle ages, the legend has changed: Lilith was not a snake, and the spirit of the night. Sometimes she appears as the angel in charge of birth of people, sometimes a demon, annoying the sleeping alone or wandering lonely along the way. In the popular imagination, it appears in the form of high silent woman with long black flowing hair. According to the Kabbalistic book, the Zohar, Lilith became the wife of Samael and mother of demons. Свет очей моих Я...душа твоя Журавлиный крик Взмах, полет крыла. Свет очей моих Ты открой глаза И почувствуй миг Пробуждения сна. Бирюзовый свод Золотой огонь Шелест чистых вод Звезд горящих сонм. Тихие сады Аромат цветов Бег живой воды Вечности покров. Это все твое Взором освяти Нарисуй узор Линией судьбы. Свет очей моих Ты взгляни в глаза В отражении их Я...душа твоя. Pollin 27.01.2015

Polina Ogiy was born in Kharkov . She quickly shows great interest in art and all its expressions, finishing her studies at the High School of Arts and Music. Then she enrolls at the Moscow State Art and Design Academy by Stroganov, where she becomes expert in drawing, painting, design and sculpture.In 1999, she got a degree as Master of Fine Art. In 2004 Polina won the first prize at the International Architecture Competition. She is currently working in the fields of painting, sculpture, architecture, interior design, exclusive decoration and painting. "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love."(The first Epistle of St. an. St. John The Evangelist) Art is the creator soul delight spilled on canvas, embodied in marble, paper, notes in the form, line, color, sound, word, movement and thousands of other creative expressions. This is awareness of Genesis, understanding of the soul creating the fabric of life .Works of art are true, pure symbols imprinted by the hand of the artist. They are characters of life, love, harmony and symmetry, sacred geometry of destiny. The world is ruled by symbols. And the true symbols express the divine harmony.If you're a creative person, the main energy that moves your hand is love, passion to cognition for the essence of things and phenomena. This is love and admiration, inspiration by the beauty of a landscape, character, object, myth or legend. The delight of my soul reflects the spiritual essence and symbolism of the Muse selected.Creativity is the destination of the soul incarnate in a person. We all are the co-creators of God, and everyone is an architect of his own life and world view. Convergence of matter and spirit, the ancient alchemy of human life are nothing else, but a splash of creative energy of spirit in matter.For me it is the music of my soul embodied in line and color, its trace through the time and space. Painting and sculpture are like my natural breath and my self expression. The motivation is simple - to live and create. An artist is the crystal, which stops the time in its purpose. An artist displays the Genesis, depicts the beauty and perfection of the moment. The artist perceives with his heart, not his eyes. An artist opens for the viewer the door to the wordlessness and guides to the pure original source of Life.Canvas is a material body, the image on the canvas is the artist soul cast.
