The presented sculpture was invented and made by the sculptor in the second half of 2021. The master makes the latest works in a larger format (for example, previously the height of the sculptures was 16 cm, but now it's 22 cm). This makes the sculpture look bigger and and weighs twice as much.
The sculptor developed the subject entirely according to his own idea: the subject is original (conceptual) and the details are worked out well.

The title "Hero" once again emphasizes the author's humor Shevchuk - instead of a helmet (helmet), on his head a colander, instead of a sword, in the hands of the "Hero" a large spoon, instead of a reliable shield, a lid from a saucepan, instead of a war horse, a wooden horse.
The sculptor rarely explains the philosophy of his views and choice of plot and encourages viewers and collectors to enjoy the subject.

SHEVCHUK Dmitriy - was born in 1964 in Kiev (Ukraine). Artist and sculptor works in his own workshop in the Kiev region. In 1991 he graduated from the Kiev Art-Industrial School (now Kiev State Institute of Applied and Decorative Arts and Design named after M. Boichuk). After studying he was engaged in manufacturing of master-models (sculptures of small forms) for manufacturing firms both in Ukraine and abroad (Italy, USA, Canada, France).

Particular recognition of the author received after the release of the author's series of sculptures - "Satire as the art of life. This is an ironic series of caricatures, which turns the viewer to the philosophy of everyday life and encourages us to look at everyday things through the prism of the author's humor.
In October 2021, the sculptor held an exhibition of his work at the Gamma Gallery (Kiev, Ukraine).

The author's work from beginning to end - the author himself makes the figure in wax, applies a layer of clay, then - melt the wax. After that he pours the metal. The last step - the author puts the finishing touches (sanding, soldering) and the figure is ready. The entire process from research to finished figurine takes about 3-4 weeks.
