“Frame 37” is a limited edition museum-quality fine art print from my series “Images of the World”. The edition includes only 10 items. To create this work, I combined my scanned hand-made drawings with digital graphics. The print is made with giclée technique in archival quality on worldly recognized Hahnemühle paper.
This piece is a printed frame from my video work entitled “Images of the World” (2022). In the video, I used images of my already created sculpture. The sculpture represents three human figures standing in front of a screen, or blank sheet. Each of the figures projects a personal image onto the screen of the world. On the one hand, I raise the question of the power of personality, individual projection, the ability of each of us to color the world according to our own choice. On the other hand, I address the theme of permanently existing generally, accepted images of the world, which we collectively project onto the Universe in the process of cognition.
“Frame 37” is a projection that opens the video. It is my graphical interpretation of the M-theory. As a basis for the drawing, I took one of the most intriguing branches of the M- theory, which predicts the Multiverse. In this version, each of the infinite set of universes is a membrane floating in a common eleven-dimensional space. These membranes oscillate and can collide with each other. At the point of collision, a Big Bang occurs, and a new Universe is born. According to this theory, our Universe was also born in the collision of two giant membranes, which occurred 13.7 billion years ago.
