Zolotariov Oleksii
У роботі «Вухо» через приватне виходить назовні і пропонує прислухатися до світу, що сьогодні перебуває у стані інформаційної війни, емоційного вибуху, безжального поглинання. У потоках нескінченної інформації, яку ми отримуємо, яку нам пропонують, нав’язують, вкидають у нас, необхідно бути гранично уважними до того, що саме варто сприймати й аналізувати, адже від цього залежить наше життя, його майбутнє, якість, сенс.

Creative path
The picture of the world in his works is reduced to the laconicism of geometric construction, where the archaic and the modern, the mental and the material, the male and the female are combined in syncretism or dynamic opposition.
Choosing simple basic geometric shapes, the sculptor builds a fine line between fullness and emptiness, as if visualising spatial, chronological and semantic connections between different elements of reality, its micro and macro structure and dialectical essence.
In his works, Oleksii expands the boundaries of personal space, involving the global, social, and painful, and records the results of the impact.
The sharp and mobile open volumes capture a sense of the complex dynamics of the modern world and the cultural situation of his own country in its context.
