Investigation of various aspects of human nature and trying to convey it through my art has been the focus of my recent artworks. This painting continues the series of such artworks.
People, like everything around us, exist inside a certain context, constantly interacting with it, changing under its influence. This is especially true for such artistic professions like a singer, an actor, a dancer, who often relive someone else’s story during a performance, obscuring for the moment their own.
This young woman is a ballerina, who just finished series of performances. She was transforming from a character to character with not a lot of time left to be herself.
It was interesting for me to take her out of context, to remove all unnecessary details, to focus at her. She doesn’t need any accompaniment, she shines by herself.
