We see an amazing combination of fantasy and skill, seeming lightness and multi-layered semantic load. The painting depicts a gnome in short pants, walking through tall grass and carrying a Gothic cathedral in a backpack.
This image evokes many associations and interpretations.
Firstly, the gnome, as a mythological creature, is often associated with hard work and skill. In this case, he acts as an architect, which emphasizes his ability to create something great and complex, despite his small stature. The Gothic cathedral that he carries symbolizes the greatness of human thought and creativity.
Secondly, the painting can be interpreted as a metaphor for human ambitions and aspirations. The gnome walking through tall grass symbolizes a path full of obstacles and difficulties that must be overcome to achieve your goals. The backpack with the cathedral on his back can represent the weight of responsibility and the difficulties that one has to bear on the path to success.
Finally, Victor Molev’s painting can also be seen as a reflection of his own path as an artist and architect. Born in Nizhny Novgorod and moving to Israel and then Canada, Molev has come a long way, full of changes and new challenges. His works, including “The Wandering Architect,” demonstrate his unique style and ability to combine elements of reality and fantasy.
Thus, “The Wandering Architect” is not just a painting, but a deep and multi-layered work that makes one think about many aspects of life and creativity.

Victor Molev is a contemporary award-winning Canadian artist. He is working in the styles of Decorative Realism, Fantasy, Symbolism and Surrealism. In the mid-1970s, as an aspiring young artist, he took drawing and painting lessons under the apprenticeship of Moscow sculptor Tatyana Vishnyakova. But it wasn’t until his early twenties that Molev became familiar with the works of Salvador Dali, Max Ernst, Rene Magritte, M.C. Escher and Frank Frazetta through books and magazines. Molev was incredibly inspired by these artists which became like mentors to him.
After receiving an education in architecture, the artist worked in the field for ten years. He then worked as a set designer at the Pushkin Opera and Ballet Theater. Both of these jobs are still reflected in the creative processes of the artist. He has created his own unique and intuitive world of dreams and absurdity. His works are sincerely naive and kind.
Victor Molev was born in 1955, in Gorky, Russia. His works were exhibited all over the world, including the Art Museum of Saint-Frajou, France. Molev has also participated in numerous international competitions of humorous drawing, and won numerous silver and bronze medals.
