About a series "Second Silence":
As with the first series, Second Silence is closely connected to the Man in Nature. It is denser and less muted in color than First Silence but still maintains the hypnotic dream-like quality of the passages in previous works have. The scenery is evocatively atmospheric, melancholic, but in the right way. Through the conditions of a limited form, attention can switch from the natural landscape and direct perception to our own, artificially created objects. If the mass pop culture begins to encroach on your spirit, but you tend toward symbolism, silence, mystical wanderings, then this is for you.
Art is the unique energy through which I live.
"I think there is something that makes every artist special. We do not come to this world completely blanked. We have been "programmed" and possessed knowledge and ideas before we took this mortal shape. Sometimes, these "notions of preexisting ideas" call us. Then the heart must follow the horizon's point and follow this magnetic pull and drive towards beyond. It what's makes me alive and is a constant impetus for my life."
About the artist:
Alexey Adonin explores the point of convergence between abstraction and surrealism to create a channel of communication between his inner world and the viewers, not only to share his personal vision but also and especially to invite viewers to elaborate their personal interpretations and narratives, establishing deep involvement both in the emotional aspect and in the intellectual one.

Artist Statement
Alexey explores the point of convergence between abstraction and surrealism to create a channel of communication between his inner world and his audience. He strives not only to share his personal vision but to invite his viewers to forge their own personal interpretations and narratives by involving them both emotionally and intellectually. His approach to his work is without preconception, allowing first for randomness. Alexey then takes advantage of the mind’s ability to derive order out of chaos. Finally, he strives to move away from banal copying reality toward creating one of his own—something that somehow reflects his inner world.
Biography
Raised in Eastern Europe, Belarus, the only child in a family of his mother, a building engineer, and his father, an art teacher, Alexey's artistic path began at a young age. He started attending Children's Art School drawing classes when he was nine. Alexey studied under the guidance of gifted teachers, including his father, one of his time's non-standard and advanced painters. Later, he went to an art college that further helped develop his artistic skills and gave him a sizeable practical base. In the early '90s, Alexey and his family relocated to Israel, where he resides and works today. Alexey has exhibited locally and internationally. His works have also been acquired by notable private collections worldwide. He has received numerous awards, most recently from Bruxelles Art Vue Foundation.
