When I become an adult Painting

My artistic alias is Art Mag, residing in Kharkiv city, Ukraine. Armed with an art education from the esteemed Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts, I proudly represent Ukrainian contemporary art as a versatile artist, sculptor, and jeweler. My artistic journey is a fusion of intellectual surrealism, sculpting masterpieces from precious metals, and crafting luxury jewelry for both men and women. Through my work, I aim to articulate the complexities of modern existence in the 21st century. Rooted in the traditions of the 19th-century French academic painting school, my creations delve into thought-provoking narratives, exploring themes of freedom and human psychology. Influenced by the pioneering works of Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, and Cesare Lombroso, I infuse powerful archetypes and contemporary symbols into my art. My oeuvre encompasses a diverse cast of characters, ranging from religious figures like Jesus Christ to mythical beings such as Lucifer, alongside modern icons like financial magnates and artificial intelligence. Yet, amidst this eclectic mix, I strive for clarity, eschewing fantastical imagery for more accessible forms reminiscent of Paul Delvaux and René Magritte. Each painting displayed on this platform bears witness to a tumultuous period in Ukrainian history, painted amidst the chaos of war from March 2022 to November 2023. Despite the constant threat of enemy bombardment, I persevered, drawing inspiration from the adversity of my surroundings. Much like Picasso in wartime Paris, I risked life and limb to produce captivating surrealist works that speak to the resilience of the human spirit amidst conflict.

"I enjoy expressing my thoughts and ideas about the modern human and their real life in the 21st century through surrealism." I create my paintings in the traditions of the 19th-century French academic painting school. All of my paintings have floor-provoking and provocative plots, imbued with the spirit of absolute freedom. My work has been greatly influenced by the scientific works of Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, Cesare Lombroso on psychology and human behavior. In the plots of my paintings, I use powerful archetypes (elements of the collective unconscious) and the main symbols of the modern world.
