"The artist's work is immersed in the autochthonous steppe, in the ancient Slavic cultural traditions. The universal symbols, images and ornamental motifs borrowed from them are interpreted and stylistically fixed by each artist in his own way and, in combination with geometric bodies, form one big puzzle of the uncertain present. The multi-layered meanings, addressed to the collective subconscious, draw the viewer into an opaque labyrinth, from which everyone seeks their own way to the truth...".
