The state of seclusion. When everything stops and you are immersed in a state of inner comfort and peace.
This work has been awarded:
1st place International exhibition "Pastelium" 2022 in the New Tretyakov Gallery of the Tretyakov State Gallery.
The picture is made with Unison dry pastel on thick pastel paper 300 g Pastelmat. All materials perfectly retain color pigment and will not lose their beauty over time. Pastel is a unique material on which great artists such as Degas, Monet and Vrubel created their canvases.
As an artist, I am inspired to create works by a person, his emotions, stereotypes of behavior.. His emotional context through the prism of the soul. I wonder what happens to the person at different stages of life, situations. Images with which a person person embodies himself, choosing behavioral stereotypes. The daily life situations I observe, the way people in society manifest themselves, they are the ones that push me to the images that I want to broadcast. In my paintings, I convey the context of sensuality. Each of us has a whole set of emotional and sensual. Being alone with the picture, something awakens in us, perhaps the strings that we do not want to spread are touched upon, it happens that outwardly we can look charismatic, impenetrable, but at the same time we carefully preserve tenderness and vulnerability in our souls.
Empathy will save this world - my deepest conviction.
