ROOTS

I began developing a new series, "Roots”, after the start of the full-scale invasion. I continue the journey of discovering the inner self that I began in my previous series, "The Giant”.  All along the way in both projects, my family has become an integral part of the work, and the pieces of the puzzle that complete the painting of the research, as in one of my works, where I present a marriage rite. In "Roots", I think of myself on a different level, as a part and base of my own family, as part of a community, and I seek new associations of identity that will not be based solely on the concept of nation. I offer new images of ideology based on fantasy, where I reveal subconscious spiritual symbols and show how they are subtly sewn inside us. This selection is a combination of both closely related projects - “Roots” and "The Giant”.
