Artist Statement
Difficult, disturbing times come suddenly. They shake our habitual way of thinking, dissolve familiar landmarks, thanks to which we are used to feeling the ground under our feet. At a time like this, the whole world seems to have gone mad. And more than ever, the desire to find a shelter where stormy winds and endless streams of bad news will not be tormented. Such a marina where the soul is warm, cozy and serene.In my work, I strive to create art as such a refuge. I give vent to the meditative impulses of material nature - harmony, which makes it possible to forget about anxiety at least for a while.
The blissful images of the quiet harbor of the material world, as it were, float from the picturesque canvases into the viewer's imagination. They remain unattainable desired, but their visual form is able to bring peace to the mind. Water, which fills all living things, as a certain constant element in the paintings, on the one hand, gives a feeling of weightlessness, on the other hand, it becomes the axis of peace and order, the eternal return to the horizon, to balance. The ships in the paintings are associated with arks that take you to safe harbors - where the soul comes to life and the icy heart thaws.
My visual style was formed during the period of life and active plein air practice on the Kuril island of Paramushir. Watching and painting the island's wildlife - active volcanoes, ocean depths - has been a defining experience for me.
Landscapes painted in oil are intangible images, like reflections. The pasty style of writing in my works creates the effect of distortion in space-time, which fills the distance between the eye and the depicted object. Thus, the image reveals itself as an aura. The paintings do not show a direct imprint of reality, but its aura, which I bring to the viewer.
My painting style goes back to the Impressionist method. The aura of the work, which carries the memory of the depicted reality, is woven from fleeting impressions, flashes in my perception.
To enter memory into the image, I use, among other things, direct artifacts - natural substances. For example, in all the works of the Kuril series there is ash from the Ebeko volcano.
Thus, I fill my paintings with nature, let in the breath of the wind, the sound of the surf of the ocean, the force of a volcanic eruption. Painting is not so much a representation as an echo of the energy that brought me into the strongest resonance with nature and gave rise to a subtle spiritual state of belonging, consonance with all living things.
