SPACE MADNESS

SPACE MADNESS
My first project of my own, which I created in March 2021. At that time I was working as a commercial illustrator in an agency and it was important

for me to perform my tasks as cool as possible in different styles. In order not to burn out I started creating for myself. Before working as a commercial illustrator, I rarely drew for myself, but when I realized that this was the thing that inspired me, I decided to create a series of illustrations.

All these illustrations are a sublimation of my inner feelings through the prism of space and cosmonauts.

I have admired these people since I was a child, so I decided to show them in my first independent project.

My style began to take shape in 2013, and I've perfected it year after year, coming up with illustrations like these.

All illustrations are currently available for purchase in A4-A2 poster format.

This is also one of my first NFT collections on Ч blockchain and objkt marketplace.

ASTRONAUT

He represents the emptiness in my personal life. I am a free man. I see no one to save me, no one who cares about me.

The leaves are me, I am alive and I fill the void with me, as I am alive and full and moving towards my dreams.

So this art could be considered my self-portrait.

It conveys the feeling of my pain and the desire to find a person with whom to be warm, comfortable and safe in space.

I am a person who was not born in the USSR, but I was already in my mother's womb when this country existed, so the helmet says USSR.

The red in this illustration shows my warmth and desire to fill all space with it.

This is the first art from the "Space Madness" collection it was drawn in March 2021.

PHONE
I love calling people and talking to them for hours. I'm sometimes afraid of not having time to call the people closest to me, I'm afraid of losing them.

I want to hear from my loved ones every day. I appreciate my family very much. There are leaves on the fence, and in this illustration they represent safety. It's like they're guarding a lonely phone in outer space.

Umbrella
The symbolism of the umbrella, which shows my magnitude of patience. I am a mortal man,

who is important to go straight ahead without swerving and achieve his goals. My glass is half full, I am not afraid of change,

I hold myself together. The leaves in this work show a comfortable environment and say that I am full of emotion to go forward.

The umbrella in red, speaks of safety and positivity, that I can take care of myself.
I'm getting attention as I need it exactly. This is a reworking of one of my favorite paintings by René Magritte.
