Talk about two projects: Synchronize the present (2018) and In Memoriam (2019). The first is based on the incomplete construction of Uzhhorod in 2017-2018, the second is the process of destroying Soviet-era mosaics in Lviv as of 2019

I find myself in the practices of perception, apperception, cognition, expressive painting and, in comparison, calm graphics (and vice versa), to the space of which, sometimes, fragmentarily or modified, I add other areas of humanities.
I am interested in and inspired by the art of creating a book, architecture, music, sounds; urban, industrial, poetic, symbolic, natural, virtual and liminal spaces; phenomenology of time, post-modern concepts of presence/absence, meanings and interpretations that arise/do not arise on the border of juxtapositions of opposites, as well as from correlations of various distinct genres, spheres of activity and paradigms of world perception. Etcetera
Attention is drawn to the search and understanding of new/other spaces — from mathematical terminology — their variety, options and methods of detection.
Also may admit the experience I have in book layout creation, book illustration and desktop publishing.
I work mainly in the techniques of graphics, video, lichtbild, installation.
