After a long harsh period in life, my wife and I found ourselves literally in the Garden of Eden. In an amazing resort in central Thailand. We went there to rest and took some painting materials with us. I made this painting from life. When I was working on it, I had a strong feeling that our life with its squabbles, illnesses, quarrels and troubles was over. That we have crossed the brink of a better world and now birds are singing around us, fountains are murmuring, beautiful branches are swaying, flowers are fragrant. Therefore, this work is a little about death. After all, the white wall is located exactly at the end of the garden. And the "toothy" shadows of the palms remind us of the terrible. But we are not afraid. We are happy.

Thailand
Vadim Kalinin was born in Moscow, Russia in 1973. In Russia, he is also known as a poet and writer. Eight years ago, Vadim became a digital nomad. Together with his family, he roams in the tropical regions of the planet. Primarily in Southeast Asia. The artist's base nest is located in the city of Hua Hin in Thailand. Vadim believes that his work is based on three powerful pillars. On the exploratory exoticism of Paul Gauguin, the surreal romanticism of Odilon Redon, and on the specific techniques of working with color and composition of the Caucasus artists. Vadim makes many tropical landscapes painted from life. He sincerely and deeply loves the tropics and its specific plastic structure. However, Vadim considers the magic-realistic branch of his work to be the most important for himself. Vadim is in a sense a visionary. Until the age of forty, he periodically saw persistent "dreams in reality", merely dreams or hallucinations. It was caused by a brain disease. Now the disease has been eliminated by surgery. The hallucinations disappeared. But memories of them are preserved, which, in a strange way, are becoming clearer and clearer. Vadim draws a lot and with pleasure other epochs and worlds in which he “visited”. Strange creatures that I "saw", bizarre gods and animals that I "encountered". With all this, Vadim is an atheist and a persistent supporter of the scientific worldview. He treats his translocation travels with great interests, but also with specific humor.
