I decided to call this artwork “Sun and Moon” because of the Book that is in Poohnastiks hands (fluffy magic characters). This is secret and magic Book ☺️About our soul, power inside us and inner cosmos world.
You can often see fluffy characters at my pictures - they have sharp ears, shiny eyes and long tails, with a fluffy tassel, like a small comet, which sticks out on a tip. They can talk, but long fur hides their noses and mouths. Who are these characters on the pictures?
They are called Poohnastiks! They can be different colors and sizes. Some of them have magic wings and can fly. They can talk, and people, especially children, who believe in miracles and good deeds, can see them. They fly to Earth at night, like falling stars, from the city which is hidden among the clouds, where all the Poohnastiks live.
Poohnastik for me is a common image, which combine something that lives inside of every person. I started to form it in 2008, when came up an idea to create a character, which is simple, clear, cute and kind. Whose existence could help us, both children and adults. If it invokes peoples’ emotions - it’s a great pleasure for me. If these emotions are positive and kind, they will certainly help to overcome something bad, that is so abundant around us.
Maybe somebody recognizes a part of himself in Poohnastik? Eyes can’t see everything – you can just feel it while looking at them. And who knows, maybe at some point you will understand: “Really, it’s me!”
