About the Item

Executed in 2025 amid the full-scale war in Ukraine, this still life is created in an expressive, deconstructive manner, incorporating collage-like elements that reference the abstract expressionist approaches of Jean Schalfaski and Willem de Kooning, as well as the bold colorism of Henri Matisse. The artist explores a delicate balance between form and color, allowing each element to interact dynamically within the composition. The work conveys a tension between chaos and order, fragility and resilience, reflecting both the inner world of the artist and the turbulent external reality. Through its layered textures, expressive brushwork, and vibrant interplay of hues, the piece transforms a classical motif into a contemporary reflection on endurance, creativity, and the persistence of life even in times of conflict.
