Overpainted giclée print on canvas Six Butterflies of Apocalypse 2023 by Kartashov Andrey Russia 21st century. 1 of 15 tinted prints. Mixed media 21th century
This is the initial version of «6 Butterflies of the Apocalypse» or «Savior Т-800». A post-apocalyptic semantic-figurative monad, giving a new impetus to the idea of salvation through love, where the horsemen of the apocalypse transformed into a quadriga, more precisely, a sextet of butterflies (“which one feels in the stomach” or which are seated on a woman’s belly). «And I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth. To him was given the key to the bottomless pit…Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them. The shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle…And they had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit» (Revelation 9:1-11). Medieval allusions peep through the context of the cyber-apocalypse, and the mechanoid model T-800 appears as a Knight of Skynet. The atmosphere of the semantic boundary between the windings of the time spiral, which touch so closely that they seem to be penetrating each other. The Angel of the Bottomless pit model T-800 is carrying the fire-scorched spiritual pursuits over into the safe coolness of likes and tweets... Andrey Kartashov graduated from the A.
