"Who Brought Flowers To Rothko?.." Fine Art Print

Born in 1967. I live and work in Kyiv. Member of the Union of Artists of Ukraine. Specialization: Acrylic painting. Style: Hyperrealism, Photorealism, Modern realism. Historical oil painting techniques implemented using acrylic paints. Subject: Still lifes, nature, environment, people. Artist's statement There is no attempt in my art to embellish reality or escape from it. I work with what surrounds us - complex, disturbing, honest. The war changed not only my physical space, but also my inner landscape. What seemed solid and stable, in an instant turned into fragments - homes, roads, the familiar world, faith in justice, even the ability to see the future. I create paintings in which these fragments are assembled into a new visual mosaic. There is no illusion of completeness or naive optimism here. This is an honest attempt to capture the state of a person living at the crossroads of eras - between destruction and hope, between pain and the search for new meanings. My works are a dialogue with the viewer about fear and strength, about loss and transformation, about the fact that even in the most uncertain times we continue to seek support - in memory, in art, in ourselves. I work in the technique of acrylic painting, combining hyperrealism with allusions, symbols and contrasts. For me, it is important not to copy reality, but to create a space where it intertwines with the inner states of a person. The "Life in Avatar" project is not an escape from reality, but a way to live it, to collect the torn fragments and, perhaps, to see in them a new, albeit fragile, form of harmony.
