Ольга Paper Imitation gold leaf Contemporary realism Portrait Ukraine 2020
Each ethnic group forms certain ideas about the universe. "How is being arranged?" - a question that all generations have asked. In many mythologies of the world, the universal model of the world order is the World Tree or the Tree of Life. Crown Trees symbolize the sky and space or the future, the trunk - earthly life or the present, and the roots - the other world and the past, connection with ancestors.The forest among the pagan Slavs was an object of special worship, because the trees growing are a manifestation of the tireless activity of the luminous life-giving stream, revered and deified by the Pre-Slavs. The tree was also identified with a person, especially with a woman, mother, guardian. In this work we have before us a strong tree with branched branches and a strong trunk, which resembles an oak - the sacred tree of the Slavs.Against its background, as if through the ages, a shadow reveals a female image, made in gray tones with a pencil. He demonstrates memory and connection with his own history and culture. The chair of the beauty is crowned with a luxurious main dress, which testifies to the high status of the hostess. The lady's skirt is decorated with a floral ornament of the "flowerpot" and "poppy" motifs, the prototypes of which are mythological images of the Tree of Life, which reinforces the leading content of the work without respect for history and culture, there is no future. In the name of Olga, the artist honors the glorious Old Russian princess, whose heirs, in a sense, are modern Ukrainian.
