(Article: IT-202621-276)
This avant-garde abstraction mesmerizes with a blend of fantasy and mysticism, existing beyond the boundaries of our reality. I released visions from within me that haunted me in a half-sleep, in those moments when the line between wakefulness and dreams thins to transparency.
This is a composite image of the keeper of secrets. The image is assembled from fragments of certain forgotten cities, and she is the last witness to their existence. The windows and doors in the structure of her skin allow echoes of foreign fates to seep through. I heard whispers from these openings—snippets of phrases, laughter, crying. Memories come from the labyrinths of her memory, from those cities that exist only in dreams.
The red circle behind her head is neither the sun nor the moon. It is the eye of the universe, watching over us while we sleep. It sees everything: our fears, desires, unspoken words. Its light penetrates the darkest corners of the soul, burning away lies and revealing the truth. And the staircase winding along her cheek is the path to oneself, to that part of the "I" we fear to acknowledge. It leads neither up nor down, but into the depths of the subconscious, where our most cherished secrets lie.
The spheres and circles scattered across the canvas are thoughts trapped between worlds. They search for a way home but have forgotten where they came from. They might be stars in the sky or balloons carried by the wind to the land of dreams. Or perhaps they are emotions and experiences we lose in sleep and then vainly try to recall upon waking.
They say paintings reflect the soul of the artist. But "Тайна города снов" does not reflect—it absorbs. Everyone who looks at it long enough sees their own forgotten dreams and lost hopes within it. This painting allows one to forget the everyday hustle and remember the most significant moments lived. It compels the viewer to unravel all the mysteries hidden in this canvas. "Тайна города снов" is not just art—it contains the eternal and unfathomable infinity.
