Canson Moulin du Roy paper 300 gr/m².

“Unseen” — the series of watercolours -—were conceived after a study of Russian illuminated manuscripts of the 17th century. They do not copy historical patterns, but they are obviously their heirs.

The picture is connected with the modern botanical painting: a white surrounding space, the floral object stands out vividly, there are no shadows and a single light source.

Why “unseen”? The answer is quite simple. None of these plants have ever existed. Many of the flowers have no natural analogues, and the shape of the leaves is completely impossible. At the same time, many of them do have a fairly bright illusion of volume and realism. Only in the painting, at the whim of the artist, this previously unseen plant suddenly becomes real.

Artist Statement

I always emphasise the decorative side of my artworks. But as is often the case in life, behind the luxury cover there is something that one had particularly carefully wanted to hide. The beauty captured in my artworks has never existed — it is just a game of consciousness transferred to the material. It is an illusion created with a longing for the past or the never-past.

The figures are connected by thin threads of mutual stories. I suggest to the viewer discover them.

In my artworks, I explore the phenomenon of human identification (including self-identification) through the objects of the material world created or used by them. The study of the "person - artifacts" link led me to the series that depicts the surrounding objects as independent players involved in the story.

In contrast to this solidly existing matter, I pay attention to the imperceptibly passing moments. Shadows, iridescent light, a cloud, a passing glance... For these subjects, I use a different style of painting, as blurred as the captured scenes.

So, my practice is a journey between eternity and a moment, light and shadow, history and the present day, matter and illusion. It's an endless exploration of different spaces, the essence of things, and the depth of human minds.
