Original artwork description:

"Green Portrait" stands as a distinguished piece by Zakhar Shevchuk, where a simple encounter transforms into an artistic exploration of color and form. The large, oil on MDF painting is an homage to the subtle yet profound interactions of daily life, inspired by a woman at a farmer’s market—a figure reminiscent of the down-to-earth subjects of Kazimir Malevich's later works. Shevchuk's portrait revels in the dominance of green, mirroring the fresh, lively energy of the market and the awakening of late spring.

Shevchuk’s portrayal transcends the woman’s individual identity, offering instead a universal representation of time and place. The strokes are both deliberate and fluid, capturing the transient light and the myriad of greens that define the essence of the season. This piece not only reflects a moment in time but also invites a dialogue about the continuity of life and the enduring human connection to the land.
