Not Everyone Will Be Taken into the Future (2019) Original Oil Painting by Igor Konovalov

№Kon 23
Not Everyone Will Be Taken into the Future is a reflective oil on canvas composition depicting an elderly man sitting quietly in an interior space. The man appears calm with closed eyes, surrounded by everyday objects such as a ladder, books, and painting tools placed on a table. Around him float playful balloon-like figures that introduce a surreal and symbolic element to the scene.

The composition contrasts the stillness of the man with the movement of the floating figures. The peaceful posture and closed eyes suggest contemplation or memory, while the surrounding studio environment hints at creative work and time passing. The balloon shapes drifting through the space create a dialogue between imagination and reality.

Executed in oil on canvas, the artwork combines careful figurative detail with expressive color and symbolic forms. The soft tones of the interior, the presence of books and tools, and the gentle expression of the man form a thoughtful and atmospheric composition.
