(Article: AL-20265-907)
«Symbol of Overcoming Time» is a painting in which the artist Antonio Lebedef transforms familiar reality into a point of deep observation of something we have almost stopped noticing today — time.
The work reveals the theme of the unnoticed disappearance of hours, days, and years when a person immerses themselves in an endless stream of informational noise.
This is not an influx of knowledge, but a subtle form of attention dispersion: when our attention fragments, time begins to flow without resistance, dissolving into habits and distractions.
Idea
The artist embeds in the painting a core thought:
freedom begins where a person is able to emerge from the information flow and consciously direct their attention.
This shift requires effort — an inner leap, an act of will, a reassembly of perception.
The artist poses a question to the viewer:
Are you ready to spend time freely (to work)?
How much time are we willing to reclaim?
And what will happen when we regain focus?
Lebedef works in his own signature style of glitch surrealism — a style that combines realistic painting with the digital logic of fragmentation through the lens of fantasy and surreal dreams.
In the painting appear:
torn planes,
structural symbols of «consciousness glitches»,
fluid forms of time,
and material markers of focus and effort.
Glitch here is not an error, but a symbol of resistance: an attempt to regain control over perception and move from distraction to clarity of thought.
For time to become a resource again, not a loss,
one must break free from the information flow and direct attention to actions that have meaning.
The work becomes not just an image —
but a reminder, a marker of choice,
an invitation to overcome the noise and enter the space of one’s own trajectory.
