ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This landscape is part of the view from the window of my studio in my parents' house. The distant peaks of the Carpathian Mountains, visible not in every weather, often and for a long time attracted my attention, gave my eyes rest from reading or drawing. More than once I drew a wavy crest of peaks, until I somehow caught myself thinking that Bruno Schulz had chosen a similar point of view, depicting the same mountains in "Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass" ("Sanatorium Pod Klepsydrą" in the Polish original). The same noble palette, the same outlines of the horizon, and the same area, ours with Bruno Schulz Galicia. It was then that I translated Schultz's prose into Ukrainian, and "Mountains I" were easily drawn, giving rise to a cycle that I wanted to continue. The hand easily conveyed the movement of my gaze and the twists of thought, the canvas thirstily absorbed the paint, to which I added fluidity with solvent and a wide brush.
