12 myths

12 myths

“12 Myths” is an abstract composition imbued with strong cosmogonic symbolism. The central part of the canvas resembles a glowing tree or an energetic vortex, around which unfolds a multitude of small color patches and patterns. They evoke the impression of an infinite universe filled with hidden signs.

At the edges of the painting, within darkened recesses, one can discern the silhouettes of figures — as if guardians or mythical characters turned toward the center. Their presence lends the work a mystical character: the viewer seems to witness a ritual act or a sacred cosmos, where every detail carries a hidden meaning.

The color palette is built on shimmering combinations of brown-golden, blue, and silvery tones, creating an illusion of depth and movement.
