ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Please Listen! Lyrics by Vladimir Maiakovsky Please Listen! If stars are lit, it is something that somebody needs? Someone wants them To be and to last, Even calls them pearls, those specs of spit. And suffocating In the blizzards of midday dust, He bursts in on God, afraid it's too late to start. He cries, kisses God's wiry hand, begs that there should certainly be a star, swears he won't survive this starless torture with no end. Afterwards he walks around alarmed but calm in appearance, Asks, " Are you all right, there is nothing to fear so far?" Please, listen! If stars are lit, it is something that somebody needs. 'Cause for someone it is so essential that every evening above the roofs there should be lit at least one star. The beautiful inspiration for this painting series was a married couple of my friends who had to leave their homeland due to war and immigrated to Spain. Currently, I am working on a series of paintings depicting romantic couples. I aim to capture their internal and external transformations.

I was born in Belarus, however, now I live and work in Spain. I am a figurative artist and from a technical point of view, I have gone from subject painting to the revised ideas of cubism and expressionism. The main theme of my artistic research is transformations and changes in our bodies and mind. I use the main principle of the cubists - to depict an object simultaneously from each side, however, I apply it not to the object of the image, but to time. I am fascinated by the constant change as the basis of our life. To convey the sensual side, I prefer to work with a complex color palette of oil paints, colored pencils, and wax crayons. For the last five years, I have been exploring in my paintings the various processes that affect our bodies. I am interested in the problems of acceptance or rejection of age-related changes, the problems of social taboos, and the framework imposed by society and forcing many women not to accept their bodies. I care about how our worldview, deep feelings, and life experience are reflected on our faces and bodies. My art is about discovering unconventional beauty and accepting and working through change and finding joy at the moment. I am convinced that we come into this world to change and encourage our viewers to enjoy this process. We lose and find ourselves, we change but somehow stay the same person, we age but come alive. We are a process and not a frozen, still pretty picture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMbxo6e1cIs
