Original artwork description:

Embark on a thought-provoking journey with Zakhar Shevchuk’s What is Real?. This large-format oil and acrylic painting explores the blurred frontier between the real and the imagined. A boy in an acrobatic pose appears lifelike, yet dissolves into semi-abstract motion and a dreamlike environment of glowing colors and floating motifs.

As the composition rises, the energetic scene gives way to an expansive abstract upper half. Here, the enigmatic orb – a hallmark of Shevchuk’s visual language – bridges the detailed and the intangible, provoking questions about perception, reality, and the unseen architecture of thought.

The artwork is sold, but Zakhar is available for commissions, offering collectors the opportunity to acquire new works that carry the same intellectual and emotional depth.

Oil, Acrylic
