Painting and art in general have always been an integral part of my life. After graduating from university with a degree in «Architecture», I worked in my profession. But gradually, painting came to the forefront. Since 2019, it has become my main, and then my sole occupation. Since then, more than 400 works have been in private collections around the world.
I work with various media based on the principle of palimpsest – multiple layers of painting or graphic overlays. The theoretical foundation of my artistic practice is metamodernism or the new sincerity. In this context, I define my main method with the term «oscillation». Exploring the fluctuations between the internal and external, the personal and the collective, I address the modernist issues of the medium. However, I am more interested in the system of perception itself rather than the physical embodiment of the image. In my works, I focus on the performative symbolic structure of painting. I draw on the experience of Michel Foucault, on his analysis of the relationships renewed by the Impressionists between painting as an object and painting as illusory volume. I seek ways to articulate the ambivalence of the image’s very nature – both enclosed within the frame and simultaneously revealed in the virtual layers of consciousness. I strive to mark the midpoint of oscillation, which is localized precisely in optics, in perception. I do not paint portraits in the usual sense of the word, but create a reason to doubt the habitual interpretation, the Lacanian Real. In this, I am guided by Magritte’s iteration of surrealism, with its visionary entry into the logic of conceptual art and even further – into the process of oscillation. I discard traditional aesthetic gradations, creating a picture-object with which the viewer independently engages in visual contact.
