ONE-SIDE LOVE (2000)Oil painting by Yaroslav Kurbanov

"ONE-SIDE LOVE"

Unrequited love is a common theme in our lives — especially when directed toward movie or music idols. We often mistake externally imposed images and ideals for our own true feelings and desires.

This work explores how we project emotion onto distant, often fictional figures, chasing illusions that lead to inevitable disappointment. These desires are not truly ours — they are reflections of someone else’s design.

In "ONE-SIDE LOVE", I aimed to express the loneliness and inner conflict that arise when love is one-sided, rooted not in reality, but in illusion.
