Bas-relief 2019, 166х124cm
Expanded polystyrene, acrylic, gold enamel, author's technique.
Almost all ancient civilizations had deep ideas about cosmology and "gods" who descended from the sky to give humanity knowledge and laws. What do we know about these "gods"? After all, according to legends, they came from distant stars, and according to the descriptions had a rather unusual appearance. Over time, we may be able to find the key to understanding encrypted messages and finding our origins ...
In my artistic practice, I like to work with volume. My author’s technique of bas-reliefs consists in combining medieval graphics, calligraphy and elements deepened inside the canvas. I love laconic colors and use a lot of gold paint to emphasize the main idea of Alchemy - getting gold, as a prototype of the Philosopher's Stone. Each such work is created manually and exists in a single copy.
