About the Item
From the artist:
"If a flawless structure has its beauty, its ruined form still keeps that quality, but a different way, and can be even more attractive. Besides, there's always a story, a drama behind such ruins, no matter when and where it took place. This idea inspired me to create a series of different works. Shipwreck was also inspired by some driftwood and other objects collected or photographed on different beaches."
In his paintings, Berdysheff combines figurative, but often distorted, objects with pure forms and textural components. They coexist beyond any physical or logical limits, revealing the invisible tension and eternal struggle between (or inside) all forms of matter. This all works to allow doubt to develop in regards to “the reality of visible”.
Born in the former Soviet republic of Georgia, Berdysheff's artistic career officially started in Scotland. Here, he took part in a post-graduate exchange program at the Glasgow School of Art, also known as Charles Rennie Mackintosh Building. After several solo and group exhibitions in Scotland, the Edinburgh School of Art hosted his major show during the Edinburgh International Festival in 1997. in 2000 he received the John Murray Thomson Award for his work in the Royal Scottish Academy Annual Exhibition. Since then, he participated in numerous shows worldwide. As for the United States, his work has been exhibited in Florida, Arizona and New York. In 2022 he took part in a group exhibition of six surrealist artists at Marietta Cobb Museum of Art.

Artist Statement: In a way, when I start a painting, it's like starting a journey. A journey that explores my past, philosophy and the human subconscious. My creations in my view are very symbolic. There are many elements in it that have latent meanings, whether collective or personal. They also have a strong philosophical and psychological charge, mainly delving into the subconscious and the dark part that we possess and repress, contrasting it with the pleasant or tender part that we want to simulate. The origin of things has a great meaning in me. This is how my inspiration arises in the world of childhood - as the origin of man - abstract symbols that simulate cells - origin of life -, the wheel - origin of civilization. I also use circles to symbolize cycles of time and life. Passage of time, nostalgia, pain, loneliness, human darkness, disturbing and perhaps bitter elements, I contrast them like enigmas in environments of apparent calm. Innocent figures with heartbreaking and enigmatic worlds. I exploit all the techniques, even sometimes I use unconventional materials until I reach the desired point of maximum expression. Influenced mainly by Klimt, Flemish medieval masters, Chagal, Pedro Pablo Oliva, Joan Miro...Category
