This picture came to me in a dream, or rather a Golden Deer. I was sleeping in our old dacha and I dream that outside the window is not a rustic landscape illuminated only by the full moon, but very high skyscrapers and our window is also somewhere very high.
And on a nearby skyscraper there is a big golden deer, beats its hoof and says:
"Hello, I am your totem"
And this picture and this series were born.
This painting and the entire Totems series were exhibited in 2020 at the Marina Tsvetaeva Museum in the center of Moscow

In his work, the artist explores sacred geometry and various symbols. Back at university, Julia was writing a term paper on the works of Kandinsky, and then she first thought that the location of a point and a line might not be accidental.Later, the artist traveled a lot in Asia and Europe, she was lucky enough to visit various holy places – a small monastery in the Himalayas, and Peter's Cathedral in the Vatican, Confucian temples in Shanghai and the Himalayan monastery of the Dalai Lama, wooden churches of the Russian North and magnificent temples of Bombay. And everywhere there was something in common – this feeling of harmony, in such places, the soul rests and is filled with something that we call "goodness". What is the secret? In lines and dots, in signs and symbols that are very similar all over the world.
The world is tired of artists expressing their anger and fatigue on canvas. Now it is relevant – "Zen art", which may not be connected with any of the world religions at all, but at the same time have such important qualities for a modern person – harmony and sacred international content, which are read at the level of feelings. Such art is like a refreshing spring in the middle of a desert of stress and anxiety. It helps a person to calm down and relax, and at the same time, at the expense of symbols, create a certain atmosphere. Yulia's dream is to make the world a better place through my paintings - a kind of space transformers into a better, brighter, kind one. And when there are many such pictures around the world, something will change towards the best future for all mankind.
