"Clean Thursday" before Good Friday is a cleansing of body and soul—a sacred tradition in Orthodox culture. A profound everyday sketch dedicated to the bathing rituals and traditions of the Russian village. The composition combines a still life of objects (a tub, a ladle, brooms, a jug, apples) and a human scene: two women engaged in a calm conversation by the window, where the warm sunset light highlights the textures of the fabrics and the density of the oil paint. The painting emphasizes the materiality of the objects and the emotional depth of the scene—an ode to purification, renewal, and family rituals.
The work was recognized by the jury of the International Exhibition-Competition of Contemporary Art "Красота России", Moscow, 2024: 3rd place in the "Ethno-Russia" category—a testament to the artistic strength, theme, and expressive technique of execution. The piece will serve as a striking focal point in interiors styled rustic, ethno, or modern classic and will fit perfectly in public exhibitions, spa zones, and thematic projects dedicated to cultural traditions.
