Description of the artwork «Philistines»
Canvas/oil, 50x70
Ordinary people, 2023-2024
The theme of society and a sense of self in society was evident in this painting as well.
I wanted to depict the moment of the rebirth of a person sitting in one place into an active person taking action. The seagulls take off from their seats, gaining freedom of action, spreading their wings, while those who remain seated are blind - they are philistines, they do not feel the need to improve themselves.
"Ordinary People" is about the social act of growing up as an individual.
