About a series "A Longing To Be":
The series reflects a dynamic link of man and the multidimensional interwoven world, born of his nostalgia for being, longing for the duration, for permanence, and absoluteness – pieces tapping into a uniquely symbiotic relationship between colors and form. The mystery alive in these paintings transmits an experience born anew yet unearthed for the first time; simultaneously, it connects the temporary and eternal spaces expressed through art's tools.
During this period, Adonin explores and is inspired by different states, emotional and elevational within himself, and transforms the most interesting of them onto canvas. He acts as a mediator between reality and obscurity – observing, studying, and revising creation. Describing this current trend, Adonin said, "I can use my sense of beauty to show important messages from the subconscious."
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.
