TRACES OF THE ETERNAL, 2022
parts of a concrete wall, 20x30x8cm
In the early 1920s, suprematism was perceived as an attempt to appeal to art outside, to higher art.
Suprematism*. Man's craving for the great, for the unknowable.
Such a craving is born in us at an early age, an interest in everything new. Therefore, in childhood we often have scratches, in moments of life when we are not afraid of anything, fearless and curious. Already as adults, with experience, we can understand where the danger lies in order to avoid serious consequences. Scratches are like fearlessness, freedom. They are like an incomplete scar, a kind of warning. The child is not able to understand the consequences, for him such a concept is still little applicable.
Our life events, which took place unconsciously, left behind traumas from childhood. Those things that were not thought out, but have long-term consequences, before we realized their essence, we have already collected, in the form of scars. If you look closely, you can see drawings in these wounds as in ancient times.
Rock carvings are the first images created by man. All these images in the caves were like appeals to something transcendent, to something higher, to the supreme.
The stone is a rock appeal to eternity, at a time when the wounds on the skin will go away, as the human body itself will go away, being not eternal at all.
* From the Latin supremus "supreme, highest", superior. to superus "upper, higher"
