Original artwork description
“The Alienation” is the culminating work of a series that has accompanied me through years of inner rupture, identity questioning, and visual experimentation. It is not only a painting — it is a farewell. A symbolic closing of a personal and artistic chapter.
The central figure, faceless and split, radiates both power and disintegration. Surrounded by spectral line-drawn faces and expressive color fields, the body stands as a totem of transformation. Red and black marks bleed down like emotional sediment, while fragile outlines whisper the presence of others — memories, ghosts, selves.
This work contains every phase I passed through: clarity and confusion, control and surrender. It is my last word in this visual language.
Why this work matters:
This painting belongs to no trend. It speaks in its own grammar — one forged from post-Soviet shadows, intimate wounds, and contemporary abstraction. It’s raw, poetic, and emotionally charged. The final echo of a painter shedding his skin.
