The artwork unveils a symphony of bright yellow sunflowers, their green leaves whispering in the background, contrasting dynamically with a brown vase and wall, and a table bathed in whites and soft blues. The side and back highlighting of the flowers and vase, underlined by expressive, rough, yet precise brushwork, injects energy and texture, transforming the classical theme into a new, warm, and joyful reading, radiating happiness and positive vibrations. The use of oil and enamel on canvas further accentuates the depth and the shining effect in specific areas, enhancing the energetic and textured ambiance of the painting. The composition is strategically structured, the vase on the flat surface near the dark wall, the light falling meticulously on the flowers, and a shadow on the table, hinting at a window whose white frame subtly enters the scene from the right. The interplay of light and shadow, coupled with unique point of light, adds a layer of intrigue and freshness to the seemingly classical still-life, enriching the visual experience. True to Zakhar's style, the flowers are depicted in a way that invites viewers to guess and add details, exploring shades and elements and interacting with the artwork in a constant play of discovery and realization. This intentional blur between the recognizable and the abstract challenges the viewer’s perception, making them revisit the painting in a continuous search for familiarity and meaning. While sunflowers have been a subject of fascination for many artists, notably Vincent Van Gogh, this piece is a testament to Zakhar Shevchuk's interpretation of the subject, infusing it with his distinctive artistic flavor and philosophical reflections. A master in arts degree holder from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture, Kyiv, Ukraine, Shevchuk continues to inspire the next wave of artists as a respected teacher at the academy, with his monumental works finding homes in public and private collections worldwide.

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
