This is the work in which the Theory of Peripheral Meanings-Controlling Signs found its absolute embodiment. “… In the shades of gray color of peripheral meanings-controlling signs, the dynamics of the development of meaning is revealed, although formally residing in the static nature of what is depicted, but containing the infinity of what is possible in the research of the hidden.” - https://niyazmamedov.com/art-signs#17-02-2016 The central element of the composition symbolizes oil rig that still feeds (and likely to be within next decade) the energy of the world. The artwork reveals the reality of the state of transition from hydrocarbon energy to green one, in which despite the talks about the need to save the planet, global players are in no hurry to implement the environmental agenda by transition from combustion of fossil fuels to clean energy. The reason is banal - high profit of the oil business in comparison with green energy. It was this message that was expressed in the work by means of the above-mentioned peripheral meanings-controlling signs. Located in four corners of pro-semantic zone of gray color, the signs symbolize here the superiority of business interests over the environmental expectations. The depicted (and shaded by ‘trees’) rhombus (the meta-abstract symbol of the area where market value forms - the shape that was derived in one of my previous works, tetraptych, www.niyazmamedov.com/color-equivalent/ ) symbolizes unwillingness to abandon the oil business by “energy companies” in favor of green energy that is not enough competitive compared to hydrocarbons. The symbols that I use in my work are rather semiotic codes, a kind of key woven into the semantic fabric of the work to reveal hidden contradictions or ontological secrets of modernity.
