R. Voskresenskii's work is a mixture of figurative subjects surrounded by long-lasting emotional sequences and a deeply sensual environment containing a lot of real and fictional objects.

Rodion strives to bring the viewer his emotional experience and sense of moment, with the help of ideas and visual means of romanticism, modernism, impressionism. The genres of interest to the artist, mainly a portrait and a naked body. He pays great attention to the study of the beauty trend of the past and present. His artistic philosophy is based on the belief that beauty is closely related to naturalness and simplicity. The faces and poses of his characters are mostly calm, but real colours and the environment are being rethought, complementing a set of emotional indicators. Rodion builds the volume of human forms, making colour areas of various sharpness, transparency and brightness.

He prefers to work with natural materials such as oil paints, pastel, tempera, wood, linen, cotton.

Conceptually, Rodion’s canvases are united by the idea of the moment of feeling, fixed in natural fullness, not distorted by time. Scenes of everyday life, surreal phenomena of dreams and deep reflection appear on canvases as an evidence of emotional experience. Sensuality is of paramount importance in Rodion’s works. The presence of images in an intimate environment, the presence of an ephemeral viewer: the invisible is endowed with visibility and importance, comes to the fore, and the blocked is praised.

Chaotic Fragments of the past are built in the chronology of feelings, the ether of pain and longing for the lost youth of the soul, for the lost homeland.
