Обман дистанції/The deception of distance

Pencil on paper with printed images
2015


The images used as basis for the work are from Internet. The viewer is in the distance initially: what is going on in the reality depicted by the picture is not clear. The second layer of the picture is the drawing of a blur – something like a tree. Is it the intention to hide the primary story in the shadow or to come closer by emphasising the image? Artist deals with a feature of the perception of an image, characterized by the collapse of its connection with the event.
