The main purpose of the picture "Crucifixion of Saint Peter" was not to show a commitment to religion but to express my feelings and attitude to this Bible Story. I wanted to show respect to ancientness and wisdom The Bible contains, as well as other mythological plots, and to image some psychological types of people I found there. There is a collision of suffering people and those who causes an affliction, a problem of sadism in the entire history of humanity from ancient times to the present. The fragmented composition of the picture was chosen in order to focus viewer's attention on the main characters and their feelings. Cold black color contrasts with warm light shades of the skin. It creates the impression of luminescence, figures stand out more and become more volumetric and expressive. The light figure of Saint Peter is surrounded by dark ones, that symbolizes evil and good opposing. As an artist I was attracted by an interesting dynamic pose of the main character and an opportunity to compare my perception of this theme with emotional approach such great masters as Caravaggio and Ribera, who also addressed to the dark moment in the Saint Peter’s life.

"I explore the nature of the unconscious and strive to create new myths that reflect the modern world. My paintings are a dialogue between darkness and light, beauty and pain, the personal and the universal. I believe humanity is in a constant search for answers about its own nature, and art serves as a guide to these depths.
My images are not illustrations of past myths but autonomous archetypes born from my inner world. They are dramatic, filled with passion and conflict, and address eternal themes: fear, loss, despair. Through the plastic beauty of the human body, I seek to convey an inner radiance that always emerges from darkness.
In my work, I avoid social contexts, choosing instead to speak a language that transcends time. This allows the viewer to focus on eternal questions that remain relevant regardless of the era. For me, art is not about text or experimentation for the sake of experimentation; it is a deeply personal statement capable of speaking for itself."
