Methods Of Cognition

Abstract Digital Print

A premium-quality canvas print, perfectly complemented by a satin-silver + black floating frame, providing a timeless and graceful display. A series of works performed in the ancient Persian technique of Ebru modified by the author. The history of this technique goes deep into antiquity and originated in Persia, where it was called the “art of the clouds.” These works provide an opportunity to delve into the rich world of sleep and imagination of the artist. Genuine sincerity in expressing deep inner experiences affects the viewer with incredible power, making him a part of the sacred mysteries. The observer must survive this subtle matter of sleep, to the depths filled with a wealth of fantasies and mysteries. Images of inner life immerse us in a world of obscure creatures. Bright, colorful images are in contrast with a uniform and calm color of the works. As a result, we have a combination of the detached gaze of the observer, together with the very subjective - of the creator.

The submissions made in this time-consuming technique are characterized by the subtlety of color relationships, by the manifestation in the outline of forms which have a symbolic meaning and are located in a symbolic space. As you know, the form of external being is always the result of some effort, of the desire to give a constantly indefinite and unfinished inner life a certain appearance in which the observer perceives it. Sleep is multidimensional, it consists of layers upon layers of visual representations, meanings and emotions. Sleep brings us back to the source. In a dream, questions and answers come. This is a space of pure creativity. In reality, there is a collective illusion of conditionality, suchness, objectivity. Each work of this series - a dream - includes a color as an emotional layer. It is spontaneous, it is born in the process of marbling during the interaction of an actor, an instrument (paper, oil, water) and the points of the universe which we interpret as “now”. This is the aspect of being, of living. The next layer is figurative (a graphic part). It is the aspect of “react”, “respond”. The third layer is the text - it is a process of “aware”, “fix.” Thus, in this spiritual chain, we come to the final aspect - to create, to push, to inspire the viewer to creativity, to self-realization and as a result to a deeper and multidimensional being, infinite, unconditioned, like the universe itself is the goal of this series.

The picture’s fairy-tail, a clue to the meaning: You can stand ankle-deep in the flower sphere and meet the teacher. His boots are soft, leather, white polka dot. He wanders in them through distant meadows and snowy peaks. He is connected to the sphere of knowledge by the Flower of Life. This connection cleanses his body, leaves cosmic signs on it. Rainbow fish, floating up from the sun, clears his thoughts of the severity of delusions. They bring the eggs of knowledge and throw them in the fertile soil of pure thought. The teacher will sprout them and exhale pure bubbles into the sphere of perception: sit, notice, weave impressions into the web of understanding of the world. And someone sits naked right on the flower, makes goosebumps and spines and does not expect anything - just happy to be in the moment. At this moment, he himself becomes the World and reveals himself to himself as unsurpassed and boundless. It’s impossible to imagine a knowledge deeper than this. Choosing your method, you need to think only about joy. Whatever brings it is true.
