Artist's Statement
Turbulent times make us strive for eternal values. My paintings are my research of world's transformation from self-destruction to re-creation that humanity is passing now, the way towards conscious pursue of Happiness.
I am turning to impressionists’ fundamentals, their challenge to capture flashes of emotions, memories and dreams. Re-thinking their approach I am using two similar but conceptually different mediums separately or together. Vivid full-bodied images are created with oil colours linking my art to historical traditions of depicting eternal beauty of human and nature. Acrylic as a modern material implements synthetic canvas of our current living within artificial news and sublimated identities. Abstracts both in oil and acrylic make an important compliment to general concept reflecting deeper feelings and emotions evoked in us by the world.
Through combination of eternal and modern elements pursue of Happiness in my art becomes a key to inner and outer Balance. I wish my paintings help people to live through turbulent times and teaches all of us to treasure moments of Joy, celebration of Beauty and Life as they are.
