"Snatches of conversation, fragments of views as motley a flicker in the stream of consciousness. Or the Writings of the gods, the runic parchment of antiquity, like the rustle of paper sheets caught in the maelstrom of time.
Fleeting memories, the voices of silence, the silence roaring second handle, pour grains of sand of existence.
In the works of Radik Garifullin, it all fits into the cell.,tables, charts, stigmatized signs and symbols, where even when an external similarity there are a dozen differences. Thin strands of lives and events that relentlessly weave hardworking Moira and rags of antiquity, lost in the myths and legends together into a colorful patchwork of his canvases.

Even more recently from his Studio, maybe from the river of time one after another began to swim fish is unthinkable, fantastic shades. This is another symbol – shimmering, mysterious, silent and wise as a child. And in his works, that is childish, easy and unconventionally perceived by Radik Garifullin serious, conceptual validity, revealing that the whole point of life is to simply live"
