Original artwork description:

Zakhar Shevchuk’s Dream Dive is a psychologically charged neo-expressionist painting, where abstraction meets vulnerable figuration. Painted in oil and acrylic on a 106x106 cm canvas, the piece captures a human figure suspended in mid-dive. But this is no triumphant leap - it’s a moment filled with emotional tension, similar to the quiet melancholy seen in Picasso’s acrobats and circus actors.

The scene is dreamlike, suffused with soft color transitions and layered brushwork. Water, light, memory, and subconscious symbolism all bleed into one another. The result is a space where viewers confront their own inner depths: where does the dream end and the self begin? This work is both visually engaging and emotionally evocative, continuing Zakhar’s exploration of semi-abstraction and psychological narrative.
