Through canvas and oil, I analyze stereotypes of the perception of objects and build a relationship between space and man. ⠀ For many years I went on long trips for sketches. Russian North, Altai, old European and Russian cities filled me with endless combinations of light, color and shapes. Now the ideas of my paintings are born from this inner archive of memories and experiences of the present. Therefore, what the viewer sees in my paintings is realistic, but not real: the main thing in them is the sensuality of perception, when it becomes important not seen, but the emotions caused by it. ⠀ In my work, I understand what my hand can reach, and I open my personal space in it. In the series "Reflections," I look for a world arising in illusions on the thin edge of water. In the series "Buy!," I explore the feelings that cause us to acquire our dream things. Studying the relationship between the city and the person, I try to look at them through the eyes of the city, for which the person passing by is only sand in a centuries-old series of events. ⠀ I strive to share with the viewer the universe of sensual experiences, so that my viewer, learning in pictures of himself, comes to rethink his experience, to discover new feelings.
