INSPIRATION

The exhibited paintings come from two series of works:

Project "Ladies-catastrophes"

Fires, explosions, inundations.
They are not terrorists or accomplices or witnesses,
but their presence is the reason of catastrophe.
They are involuntary goddesses, makers of destinies.
And they are always safe and sound.
Sometimes they don't notice what is happening.
And of cause, they don't know they are the reason.
Motivation of project is to add a little irony in horror of
everyday life, television news, to create fairy tale.
And Project "Life Snapshots"

The exhibition unites works which, like snapshots, extract and capture the moments of everyday life and their aim is to hold the atmosphere of these moments. It consists of the feelings which one experiences while anticipating a discovery of a new city, pausing in front of a shop window or watching the eternal movement of the waves...
