Painting Overview
I was born and grew up in the Soviet Union — the country which nowadays does not exist. People of my generation should remember this «monster».
In this picture I’ve given it a try to express all the dullness and meaninglessness of all what has been happening there.
It doesn’t really matter, what year it has happened at, what city something occurred in, what kind of holiday it is. All this was boring, ordinary and always equally hopeless.
My point of view which I’ve just stated here is not to be meant as something politically affected. These are just my associations from the period of my life which has actually long ago come to its end.
