'Unreal' Faces

I started creating the 'Unreal' Faces collection in 2022.
These works are a mix of Photography, Digital Manipulation Collage, and painting.

I create "unreal" faces and characters from photographs taken by me in museums (Louvre, Versailles, etc), in nature, and in the city. Often the building blocks for my digital collages are photographs of my physical paintings or handmade accessories.
Getting on the working field of the program, the photos are bent, twisted, and stretched, as if life itself passes through them and breathes in the idea. And now, I can already see how the image begins to emerge. He looks fun, sad, or smiles mysteriously, depending on the sensations that I catch in space. Sometimes I feel like I'm predicting the future.
I'm talking about the actual, about what worries all of humanity today: about the secrets of the universe and the world order, human destinies, and the depths of a person's personality. This is a game of choice.

"Welcome to the Game on Earth!"
What if it's true that our whole life on Earth is a big GAME, and we are all just AVATARS?
And we have the ability to choose our destiny for the next 100 years?
So, in my paintings, I create various possible versions of human destinies and AVATARS.

I believe that our life on Earth is a big game in which parents and society, layer by layer, impose taboos on the free souls of children. Children lose their memory and stop hearing their inner voice. And only a strange longing in the chest reminds us of our divine origin. And the one who manages to remember and connect the soul and mind is the winner of the game.
The purpose of my art is to draw the viewer's attention to his inner voice, and inner light, to trust him and understand the intention of the soul that once chose this incarnation and this fate. And so break free.

Today we are broken, sharp as pieces of glass, we do not know who to rely on, or how to collect ourselves. But, I understand that if you accept each of your pieces - a fragment, there will be hope and an opportunity to start building yourself and treating yourself and others with care and respect.
And the creation of Digital Avatars helps me to rethink and convey the search and acceptance of my own fragments, my subpersonalities, and my Avatars.
I go through my hero's journey in every character. I am aware of my transformation and see how it is synchronized with the transformation of our entire society.
I believe that having gone through wars, and the destruction of existing systems and dictatorships, humanity will come to a new era of Goodness, Acceptance, and Freedom. And while the world is on the verge of great changes, we all inevitably feel this Zeitgeist.
Metamodernism perfectly conveys this unity of disturbing reality and the beautiful virtual world and makes it possible to create the Game in the language of art and invite the viewer into it. Here you can make mistakes and not be lost, there is free will, and it is not suppressed, but supported and accepted by society.
Here you can hear your inner voice, trust it and understand the intention of the soul that once chose this incarnation and this fate. And so break free.

'Where are my wings?'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

I remember I flew high and free.
Was it a dream or was it life before I was born? I don't know.
But somewhere in the chest lives delight and a feeling of flight.
So where are my wings?

'Biorobot, at the moment of realizing what fear is'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

Today we marvel at the ability of artificial intelligence (Chat GPT) to instantly compose huge texts, solve problems and write code.
Even IT specialists today are worried that artificial intelligence will deprive them of their work in 5 years.
But we all know from childhood that the human brain does not use even 10% of its capabilities.
Does this mean that inside each of us, there is the same artificial intelligence as Chat GPT, endowed with limitations and feelings?
So who are we?

"Our whole life is a game"
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

Everything is a game. Our spirit, like a child, plays with our personality and with external reality. We just need to guess and see this world differently and enjoy the game.

'Compromise of freedom and unfreedom in my mind'

'Kneeling goddess who lost her memory in this game'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

Once upon a time, she was a goddess. Inner beauty and dignity shone in her eyes. And then she decided to play a game on Earth. She chose her parents, fate and was born. But a misfortune happened, she completely forgot everything and gradually turned into a kneeling slave. And only the weak voice of the soul can help her wake up. But does she hear this inner voice?

'The Illusiveness of Being'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

Humanity prides itself on its intelligence and superiority over all living beings on Earth.
We pride ourselves on the number of cerebral convolutions.
We are proud of our accumulated wealth and jewels.
And we are very pleased with ourselves.
But we do not notice at all how thin and transparent our stem of life is.
And we do not notice how ghostly all our achievements and accumulations are. Are these things really important?
Is this what we came to this world on Earth for?

'Provocation and play of the Spirit of contemporary art'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

Reality plays with us, winks and jokes. Contemporary art captures and transmits this. Who is the Spirit of Contemporary Art like? Is he the same hooligan and provocateur as Duchamp and Cattelan?

'Looking for inner light'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

When we are hurt, sad, and lonely, we are frantically looking for external solutions, looking for people.
A wise man goes deep into himself. He is looking for peace and quiet.
This is a game of finding the inner light. We all play this game the best we can.

'Salvador Dali - children's delight from the Game'

'Silent question of nature: Man, are you sure about what you do?'

'The Universe is watching you through the eyes of your beloved dog'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2023

Is there an observer in this world? What does he look like? Why sometimes in the eyes of my beloved dog I see something more than just a devoted look?
Is man the most intelligent being on Earth, or, as in "The Truman Show", are we all living here in the scenery of a big game?

'The illusion of having a soul'
Photography & Digital Manipulation, 2022

There are an open look and a sensual mouth. It seems that a big sincere soul lives in this woman.
Or it's just an imitation?
