First March Tulips

70*50 cm, mixed media on canvas

The painting series appeals to the schizophrenic dichotomy of blooming life and death (which is now too close). We have learned to live, work, and even find inspiration in the permanent stress and egregore of war, the relevant information field, and while friends or relatives are at the front.

We Ukrainians, who have been experiencing the war for three years now, differ from people who haven't experienced this trauma. The explosion that creates this chasm shatters the “liberal” idea of the continuity of time.
