"Elegy of Autumn"
It’s a melody of autumn - story of elderly couple living together all Life, each in his personal world. Here, the spheres serve as metaphors for dissociation from the outside world and from each other

My art is a world of allegories, metaphors and multifaceted associations. This world is sometimes absurd and paradoxical, sometimes strange and surreal, but this world is a reflection of my true feelings. In this world, different emotions coexist side by side: irony, fear, joy, pain, sometimes even madness and despair, but there�s always a presence of hope and there�s never hatred. My artworks are addressed not to reason, but to the spectators� feelings. My language is the language of intuitive characters and metaphors. I try to avoid flat and primitive clich�s, which appeal to our basic instincts, such as sex, fear or disgust. Recently, I find a lot of inspiration in Biblical stories. What inspires me is its mystics and philosophy of life. I think that it's not important how an artist creates his work. It can be created with any tool and any medium, but it should speak for itself and convey a very special mood. It should need no explanation, no elaboration and no apologies. It can be very aesthetic or the opposite of it. The most important thing - is freeing the imagination, so "the sky is the limit"...
