When I was a child I spent my summers at countryside. I remember ruins of an old church in the middle of the field. I loved exploring it. Wild flowers covered the floor and the sky was instead of the roof. And I could guess the hints of painted figures on walls. All those saints faided with time...But there was one particular figure...The woman. She was painted right at the top of the wall. I felt eternal harmony when I was standing there under her silhouette. I visited that church again years later...it was restored and when I went inside the feeling wasn't the same...All those bright and colorful figures of saints painted on walls and ceiling didn't make me feel as serene as before.I created this works to make you feel the lightness of Universe, to bring serenity to your heart. Universe, Woman, Lover, Mother...this artwork unites all the those sides.
