Artist’s Statement In my practice, I work with painting, exploring themes: love, human relationships, Slavic traditions and information technology. I work in traditional media, using oil, acrylic, watercolor, and golden potali. The inner volume of the paintings is achieved only on the contrast of cold and warm color palettes. Otherwise, I avoid feeling the depth of space, turning the composition to ornamental correspondence or icon painting practice.The symbolic structure of the structure of objects and characters and the addition of decorative elements to the space: a reference to ancient cultural codes and sign systems. The two main genres of my works are subject painting and portraits. I combine mythology, legends and assemble them into an anthropomorphic image. It is read through signs sewn into the perceptions of each person.In my opinion, emotions are the brightest color of the universe, a universal language understandable to everyone. I've always been interested in how people are emotionally connected to each other. The interaction of these connections forms my approach to developing themes within paintings.
