About the Item

Created amid the turbulence of war-torn Ukraine in 2024, The moon drinks the sky by Igor Volkov-Tkachinskiy marks a departure from his signature palette, embracing unexpected hues that convey a sense of fragile tranquility. Executed on wooden plywood with rich, flowing oil paints, the composition intertwines human vulnerability with the vastness of nature. At the heart of the painting, a nude figure rests upon a pink horse — a powerful symbol of freedom and primal strength, transformed here into a gentle, almost spectral presence. The horse’s delicate coloration and flowing contours evoke a sense of vulnerability, reflecting the fragility of human spirit amid chaos. In the background, a distant couple embraces, embodying a quiet, unwavering connection in the vast, indifferent landscape. Volkov-Tkachinskiy’s use of soft, almost dreamlike colors contrasts with the harsh reality of his surroundings, symbolizing a longing for peace and human connection. The juxtaposition of the horse’s raw power and the tender embrace of the pair speaks to the duality of strength and intimacy, capturing the artist’s quest to find beauty and meaning within chaos, offering a poignant reflection on resilience and hope.
