Original artwork description:

Genesis (2024) by Zakhar Shevchuk transforms the egg – a universal symbol of life – into a serene meditation on beginnings. Painted in oil on canvas, the oval form glows in translucent layers of blue and white. It feels at once fragile and resilient, protective and open, suggesting the mystery of both birth and transformation.

The composition is minimal but powerful. Shevchuk distills a wealth of symbolic meaning into a single image, allowing viewers to reflect on cycles of renewal, growth, and possibility. The palette reinforces the meditative mood: whites shimmer with light, while blues evoke depth, calm, and infinity.

This balance of simplicity and symbolism makes Genesis a work that resonates beyond its form. It is not only a painting but an invitation to contemplation – a quiet reminder of the beginnings that shape both life and imagination.
