About The Artwork

Casus Nietzsche series. Human All Too Human. At the beginning of the book Nietzsche mentions that his books tend to “overturn all the usual habits and value assessments” that are only “human, all too human.” The revolution can be understood literally as the spatial position that is not necessarily negative. The title leads us to the question of what is the human nature, if not to stand upside down as a metaphor, confusing cause and effect, the emotional and the rational, be mistaken, get lost and fall in a metaphysical void in the absence of clear guidelines? Visual embodiment of such a revolution in our work is the placement of the model with the hand stretched straight down when it is not clear whether she is breakdancing, or she is suspended in the stillness between the past and the future, or simply is falling down while keeping an unflappable face. Maybe one has to fall in order to get out of this state and to become a new transformed person. On the other hand, an inverted position may be an attempt to return to a normal state that is already reversed, or it might be an inverted ironic demonstration of awareness being inverted. Perhaps the best that can be done in the framework of human life is to bring it to an aesthetic limit. In red dress, makeup, full of stoic courage facing the inevitable, our model goes on a rope to the other side of the abyss of the human situation. Limited edition print #1 of 20. Plaque mounting Made in Collaboration with Vitaly Korneev https://sophievital.wordpress.com

Everyone can press the camera's shutter button and take a picture, but does that mean that now we are able to better express our view on the world? Although it is assumed that the photo can correctly display three-dimensional world, it can not, and every photographer knows that the point of shooting, along with lighting, determines how the photo will look. Simple changing of focus' depth changes perception. The point of view travelling in three dimensions gives a lot of possibilities from which some one only realizes in a photograph. Throughout its history, painting has developed a lot of two-dimensional illusion of three-dimensionality, but none of them is not final. You can always go beyond what was suggested yesterday. Plane has its own graphic will and its demands to the painting. We are moving from photography to painting, developing new parallel ways of understanding the three-dimensional world in applying it onto a two-dimensional surface. Artistic field that we study is how to conclude a photographic image within the two-dimensional pictorial object. We consider photography as a starting point and premise work to change perceptions. Photography is only a starting point for changing the spatial structures which break down into simple planar components and then continue to change under the influence of different visual techniques. http://sophievital.wordpress.com/
