Original artwork description:

Melting Reality (2025) by Zakhar Shevchuk presents a moment of sublime movement: a female figure, captured mid-air in a diving stunt, arcs downward through a dreamlike atmosphere of melting color. Measuring 100x76 cm, the piece is a poetic balance between the physical and the psychological – between athletic elegance and existential transformation.

The painting’s palette pulses with vitality: sea blues, warm greens, glowing pinks, and soft yellows blend and drip like water rushing past the figure’s skin. Her jump is purposeful, yet the destination is undefined. Is she diving into water? Into memory? Or into some private, interior realm? In Shevchuk’s hands, this simple act becomes metaphysical.

This work resonates with collectors who appreciate figurative abstraction that doesn’t explain but instead evokes – emotion, momentum, vulnerability. A graceful, glowing metaphor for diving headfirst into change.
