Event: IMHO project
Dates: 1 Nov 2016 - 6 Dec 2016
IMHO is an author's subjective project about human life. Contemplations about simple and complex concepts of social life, expressed in laconic visual forms. This project was inspired by the two authors’ discussions about such concepts as: hope, fear, personality, system, politics ...
These discussions resulted in a visualized dialogue about life based on personal experience and self-discovery.
In the diversity of the human world it is very easy to overlook the obvious. Authors want to focus their attention on these often overlooked things. The IMHO project consists of independent compositions in the spirit of minimalism to express the idea in the most pure and accurate way.
IMHO is an emotional project with a spark of irony and sarcasm.

Biography
I am a seasoned graphic artist with a focus on realistic visual art. The centre place of my paintings belong to cityscapes. Traditional architectural visualisation as hand-drawn watercolour rendering are my strong point.
▪️Artwork are in 4 museum collections
▪️Featured in 7 solo exhibitions and over 70 art exhibitions worldwide
▪️30 times my works were recognized with awards and shortlisted in international competitions
▪️8 times my artwork were published in print publications including "Pratique des Arts" (France) and "Artists Magazine" (USA), as well as featured in several online magazines
▪️Brand ambassador of Princeton Brush
Being a watercolour and graphics artist I use to work with paper, graphite, black-chalk, ink and watercolours. Watercolours is my unrivalled material. It shows itself unpredictably and detests mis-action. It’s watercolours definitely that saturates paintings with light and breath of life.
Graphics art is my greatest passion. Here one’s emotions become clean and colours - useless, while aesthetics of forms revives.
There has been a veritable firestorm of emotions each time I choose the next subject. As it’s crucial to reflect my own impressions - immediate emotions appeared at the certain moment and at the certain place. Triggering this action I oftentimes modify reality.
I am not steady in painting the right shapes but I create an illusion of reality, move structures and joint views. Having used hyperbola I keep the image.
