Ступени в будущее, 80х120 см, холст, масло
В картине использован рисунок изображённый на чаше (Килик: три фигуры, серебро, золото, 440-430 гг. до н.э.) в виде тени на обрыве из прошлого. Находки археологов на городище керамики и других предметов из прошлого это ступени в будущее.

Так выглядит разрез городища. Все эти слои с 6 века до н.э. до наших дней один за другим образовывались из строительного и хозяйственного мусора и погребали под собой остатки построек.
Глиняные постройки разрушались быстро, на их месте возводили новые. Поэтому за 26 веков культурный слой здесь достиг 12 метров.
Городище Гермонасса расположено в центре современной Тамани. Раскопанные здесь самые ранние строения датированы серединой vI века до н.э. Эта земля хранит следы греческой колонизации, римского господства, Великого переселения народов, истории Хазарского каганата, походов князей Киевской Руси, генуэзской колонии, османского владычества, событий присоединения Тамани к России, Крымской, Гражданской и Великой Отечественной войн.
Город много раз менял название. Древние греки называли его Гермонассой, хазары - Матлукой или Таматархой, славяне - Тмутараканью, половцы - Матрикой или Матархой, генуэзцы - Матрегой, турки - Таманом.

Steps to the future, 80x120 cm, oil on canvas
The painting uses a drawing depicted on a bowl (Kilik: three figures, silver, gold, 440-430 BC) in the form of a shadow on a cliff from the past. The finds of archaeologists on the site of ceramics and other objects from the past are steps into the future.

This is how the section of the settlement looks like. All these layers from the 6th century BC to the present day, one after another, were formed from construction and household debris and buried the remains of buildings.
Clay buildings were destroyed quickly, new ones were erected in their place. Therefore, for 26 centuries, the cultural layer here has reached 12 meters.
The Hermonassa settlement is located in the center of modern Taman. The earliest buildings excavated here are dated to the middle of the VI century BC. This land preserves traces of Greek colonization, Roman domination, the Great Migration of Peoples, the history of the Khazar Khaganate, the campaigns of the princes of Kievan Rus, the Genoese colony, Ottoman rule, the events of the annexation of Taman to Russia, the Crimean, Civil and Great Patriotic Wars.
The city has changed its name many times. The ancient Greeks called it Hermonassa, the Khazars - Matluka or Tamatarch, the Slavs - Tmutarakan, the Polovtsians - Matrika or Matarcha, the Genoese - Matrega, the Turks - Taman.

Olga Bezhina is a prizewinning Russian painter. She frequently works 'en plein air,' rethinking natural colors and capturing the optical effect of light and wind flowing. For her, the open air acts as a creative laboratory, where the search for the most advanced pictorial approaches is carried out and new solutions discovered. Her resulting paintings are full of rhythm, bold colors and a balance of strength and silence that directly reflects the majestic landscapes of the Taman Peninsula.
