In my 11th birthday, childhood's friend wanted to give a gift for me. Having no money, he decided to earn their way of scrap metal. The venture ended in tragedy - he died in front of me, hit the car. For over the years, my birthday began with the traditional visit to the graveyard to meet him. 
This case influenced my attitude towards life in general, creativity has become the meaning of life. I could tell by the colors and forms of what couldn't say it out loud.

Maks Egorov (Russian: Максим Егоров; born 23 June 1988) is a Russian artist, who spent 5 years in China. His works stretched across many genres, such as fauvism, surrealism, expressionism, cubism, and suprematism. He seeks to depict not objective reality but rather the subjective emotions and allegorical images based on influenced by his personal feelings through the color and form. Maks Egorov was born in the industrial capital of Russia, Yekaterinburg city in 1988. His childhood was during the collapse of the Soviet Union. When the Soviet Union collapsed, most people were excited but unprepared for the challenges, including his family. The unhealthy situation in the family caused him multiple psychological traumas, which influenced his attitude to life. He found comfort in a close friendship with a boy living in the neighborhood. But several years of strong friendship ended at one point because of the tragic death of a friend in a car accident. Ironically, it was the eleventh birthday of the young artist, from that moment on, the creative path began. At the tender young age of 11, Maks Egorov completed his first paintings collection. The first paintings were devoted to the themes of death, loneliness, and the search for the meaning of life. By the age of 13, Maks finds the support of a school art teacher, thereby he gets the opportunity to participate in urban art competitions. For several years he successfully won competitions that helped him gain confidence as an artist. Despite the first successes in the artistic career, mental experiences did not fade away, which led to suicide at the age of 16. Several clinical deaths during the week in a coma. Doctors managed to save him. After a few months of rehabilitation, Maks opens his first solo show, where he demonstrates artworks in different techniques and is mainly devoted to the topic of life after death. Then he gets a lot of attention from the local media. For several years after the coma, Maks Egorov actively opens a series of solo shows in his hometown of Yekaterinburg. After that, he goes on a trip to Europe and Asia for inspiration and new pieces of knowledge. Today Maks Egorov lives and works in Moscow. Many of his paintings are now exhibiting in China.
