"Red viburnum" Painting

Red viburnum This picture was created during my studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, when I was on the 4th year of study. the main idea of ​​this still life is in direct reference to the story by Vasily Shukshin "Kalina Krasnaya". In 1974 Shukshin became the director of the film by the story which he wrote. He also played the main role of Egor: the thief who had just been released from prison. Egor wrote letters to a woman from a Russian village during his imprisonment. He wants to start a new life with her, although he hasn’t seen her even once. The only thing that unites them is their letters. Each of them had a difficult fate, each of them just wanted to be happy. This picture is first of all the story. Key signs such as crumpled paper (prisoners' letters), the leather black jacket (an image of a prisoner), the blood red berry (a symbol of the tragedy of the fate of the hero, his sacrifice and retribution for his sins). These are thoughts about whether bad person have a second chance or not. Can we forgive others and ourselves for mistakes if we regret. And in conclusion, I want to say : how difficult to say goodbye to the past. Sometimes the past does not want to let go.Perhaps Shukshin did not give people a second chance (I made this conclusion from the last scene of the film), but in my story, people always have a chance to start all over again.
