Original artwork description:

Painting East Wind is my personal reflection on the world political landscape in the post-pandemic era.
Sometimes I miss pandemic lockdowns when there is less interaction between countries.
Deep desires in humankind of command and conquering were always there but we use them wrongly. Frozen for a while now extremely exposed. Instead of diplomacy there is violence.
First ideas came in York(UK). I was there with my family. I was amazed by the North Yorkshire landscape(York Racecourse) terraced houses and streets. Here inspired by Instagram videos of conflict in Gaza Strip I brought together two experiences.
There was a peaceful time however I knew that in Ukraine there was no peace and refugees were moving to Poland and Western Europe.
In this painting I hope you will find some peace and disturbance at the same time as the landscape we live in is like that.
I was exploring movement and capturing it. I was inspired by artist Francesca Woodman,Vanishing Act. I tried to paint some characters using a blurred effect and bring some movement in the composition. Another interesting bit of the painting are sheer curtains during the windy day. It was a very spooky experience and I found it bizarre.
Artwork is painted on 3 panels.
