"Behind the scenes" Painting

Taras Haida
was born in the village of Kariv near Lviv in 1993 and currently lives and works in
Kyiv. Engaged in oil painting and digital collages,
The predominant theme of Taras Haida’s art is immersion in his own subconscious. The artist
depicts situations and ideas that emerge from inside him, and
thanks to intuitive thinking, turns
them into expressive artistic im
ages. Taras’ creations primarily concern how we register and
comprehend the manifestations of our consciousness. Amongst his visual techniques, the most
important are fragmentation of the
whole, glitch and deformation. These creative tactics determine
the essence of the artist’s works: they are always suspended and unorganized, resembling the
atmospheres of powerful dreams or uncontrollable experiences.. His artwork depicts individual scenes of human existence captured in destabilized
compositions. Glitch effects, like a doubt, penetr
ate the texture of all these works, enlargin
g and
disjointing the usual appearance of people, animals and objects. All the artist’s experiences,
impressions and scenes of life events combine into geometric shapes saturated with gradated tones
and smooth outlines of humans and plants.
