Foetus, Yaka  
50x70cm, acrylic, varnish, canvas

Like a text scrawled on the desk of the Jesuit school where Stephen Dedalus studied, the protagonist and alter-ego of the author James Joyce in the novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Fetus (Latin embryo) is the first painting in the series. I regard the ideas of proportions by Le Corbusier, Vitruvius and other seekers of regularity in proportions as a germ idea.

The painting was featured at the following exhibitions:
2019 - The Study of Form, School of Visual Communication, solo exhibition;
2018 - ‘The Study of Form’ is the first solo exhibition, TRIPTYCH: GLOBAL ARTS WORKSHOP.

Foetus

The Patrol, Yaka
60x80cm, Canvas, acrylic, thread, paraffin, varnish

This is one of four paintings united by the theme of castes. Social inequality has existed, exists, and will continue to exist, so I see the genuine relevance of this theme.
Personally, through my paintings, I want to highlight the different speeds and paces of people's lives, which allow such division to exist.

In this red painting, the Kshatriya warrior caste is depicted. My intention was to show a patrol monitoring the demarcation line. The surroundings are night and forest. The moon is up, illuminating the watchtower and the forest behind it. The border is shown with green lines.

The Patrol

The Caravan, Yaka
60x80cm, Canvas, acrylic, thread, paraffin, varnish

The first work from the group '4 Castes' - Vaishyas.
Vaishyas are the caste of merchants. They belonged to the 'twice-born': once when they were born, and again when they acquired knowledge.
The painting depicts a caravan in the middle of the dunes, carrying a load on loaded camels. The large figure dividing the painting is the image of a compass needle. The image of the caravan becomes even more vivid when recalling the eponymous composition by Duke Ellington, which was used in a modified version in the video.

The painting was featured at the following exhibitions:
2019 - The Study of Form, School of Visual Communication, solo exhibition;
2018 - ‘The Study of Form’ is the first solo exhibition, TRIPTYCH: GLOBAL ARTS WORKSHOP.


The Caravan

The Temple, Yaka
60x80cm, Canvas, acrylic, thread, paraffin, varnish

The third work from the caste series. The temple is the place of the spiritual servants, the Brahmins, the highest social caste of Hindu society.
Asking the question, "How to perform the rituals?", they sparked more important questions: "Do we need to perform them?" and perhaps one of the most important: "Does what we do this for exist, or might everything be different?"
The painting depicts a temple complex with tall golden towers. This complex is located on top of a mountain.

The Temple

The Peasant Dance, Yaka
60x80cm, Canvas, acrylic, thread, paraffin, varnish

I dedicated the last piece in the caste series to the Shudras - the common people, the peasant caste.
The theme of Shudras is firmly associated for me with the painting 'Peasant Dance' by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. This painting was created based on its motifs.
We see a rural festivity and people rushing out to the field, intending to dance and have fun. Importantly, Bruegel noted in his painting how people lose their heads in such merriment, trampling on culture and rules of decorum.

The Peasant Dance

The Spaceport, Yaka
60x80cm, Canvas, acrylic, thread, paraffin, varnish


Reflection on the theme of today's and tomorrow's space programs.
At some point in people's perception, even a busy spaceport will seem like something routine, mundane. This thought amazes me!
