Artist Statement
The main theme of my paintings is the fight against mental disorders within a person and the conditions associated with it, as well as the states of a person freed from illness. My artistic practice is based on reflection on my own 12-year experience of living with and coming out of an anxiety-depressive disorder.

The initial period of my practice reflects a fragment of the course of a mental disorder: I try to fit the process, the long experience of living in certain states. These states are very deep and are not typical for people with a healthy psyche. People are depicted one by one: I share O. Huxley's idea that people are somehow alone in their worldview, and we are forced to live all internal events on our own. Oil paintings of this period (2021-beginning of 2022) are characterized by expressive presentation, paint streaks, and strong contrasts.
