Stronger

“Every time I look in your eyes I feel stronger, stronger
Every time I look in your eyes I feel stronger, stronger
The look in your eyes makes me stronger
Now I can’t wait any longer
So look at me, shine on me
Without that I’m going crazy.
Crazy!”

You can own the body, you can own the heart, you can own the soul. But I always preferred to own the eyes. To fall in love with a person, it is enough to fall in love with their eyes.

For several days, the song Stronger by the Ukrainian band We Are (which is now somewhat different) has been playing in my head and player. After looking at the text (because I am a Ukrainian-speaking person and my English is “so-so”), I liked it. I decided to do some work, and I wanted to start with a reference. But I liked the reference from the phone with the processing, so I decided to leave this work as it is.

I added a second photo – it is from 2013. This is the beginning of our acquaintance with my wife. This photo became the “eye donor”. Strange work? Probably… but do I have different ones?..

“Maybe I’m busy today
But tomorrow I will throw my routine away
You’re my sun I need your light
You’re my charge that I need to fight
Maybe today I don’t have too much
But tomorrow I will give you a sky
You’re my sun I want you to shine
So please don’t ever ever cry!”

Ps I know you’ll definitely like this song, but it’s her song. Always remember that ^_^

I ain’t got a Bright Side…

“I ain’t got a bright side
Don’t tell me there’s a silver lining
I ain’t got a bright side
Cheer up baby, give us a smile..”

The song by the band Anavae – “Smile” was supposed to be related to another work, but it so happened that I found a rather interesting belt in myself. I wanted to do something dark, not in the sense of blood and makeup, but with a sexual overtone. Unfortunately, due to damage to the electrical infrastructure and lack of light (due to the russian attack), the work turned out to be less than ideal. But it’s better than nothing.

“Tearing out my eyes to rid my temptation
I am lacking affirmations, just grieve, breathe, breathe
You’re making me your art and staying miserable
Will we always gravitate to all the things that make us tortured?
This is getting really boring”

Sandwich with sausage and cheese

The mystery of this picture is that this “sandwich” is both conventional and not. The point is that the picture was taken with a thermal camera. Or rather, three pictures were taken. First, I took a picture of a piece of toasted bread. Then a piece of sausage. Then a piece of cheese. So the picture consists of three images of different foods that were printed on one piece of paper. So technically it’s a printed sandwich.

Child

I wanted some kind of expression. Something that I definitely haven’t done before. And this is it. The devil is in the details, so to create this inscription…paint was used. Paint and sperm. Bringing a double meaning to the work.

We always know where a person is born from, but we never know where our creativity comes from? From people? From feelings? I think that people and feelings serve as a kind of trigger. In fact, every work is born from something else. From love? From the desire to convey the inner world and find people like us? I don’t know. Because often the people who are inspired by our creativity don’t inspire us. Or vice versa, we love someone else’s creativity, but we are ignored. Although it seems to you that all you need is for a person to maintain contact.

My creativity is born from darkness. Not abstract or fantasy. From the darkness of my soul. That’s probably why I often have “bloody” works. That’s probably why I often use the red colour of light. Because blue is cold, and green is nothing. Only in red do I see things the way I would like to see them.

She should be ten in a little over a week. If you made something with papier mache and you have paper left over – it’s just garbage. Leftovers from work. If you wanted a child, and got a tombstone – this work that I did today is probably the best thing you can use such material for.

Bad Habits

It just so happens that I realize my inner world in my work. And this is the very case when the emotion that was experienced was reflected in this picture, or rather, a series.

“It’s crazy
How did this start with fire?
Burning when I met you
With desire

It’s crazy
How did we get to this?
We both fell for something
We didn’t know exists..”

“I lost control
You had it
We were alone
Bad habits
We lost control
We had it
Now I’m alone
Bad habit…”(c)Nerv
