The «Consequences» series is revealed through the juxtaposition of two forces: the rigid geometry of urban space and the intrusion of an unorganized, destructive power into it. In these works, this conflict takes on a visible form: sharp lines, a restricted color palette, and regulated boundaries serve as symbols of systemic organization, while elements of decay, emptiness, and impenetrability capture moments of breakdown and the threat of entropy.
«Shards» 100×100 Canvas, tempera
In the work «Fragments,» the window symbolizes the image of «Home.» Subsequently, the broken glass signals danger, vulnerability, and external threats beyond the conceptual sanctuary.
The darkness outside the window is a metaphor for an uncontrollable «blind spot» where urban regulations do not apply. The static nature of the composition emphasizes the frozen quality of order: destruction in such an environment is particularly unsettling because it undermines the very foundation of ordered space.
Through the crisp graphics of the window frame and the chaotic dark mass, we achieve a sense of an «illusion of control» within the chaos.

«Shelter» 74×95.5, Canvas, acrylic
In the work «Shelter,» the image directly references protective architecture—structures designed to isolate and contain chaos from the outside. The refuge assumes an «invisible» control over the situation: it restrains the threat without allowing it into the ordered space. The mere existence of such an object implies a catastrophe scenario. The environment is designed with possible failure in mind, and the essence of control boils down to localizing the consequences. The minimalistic landscape and restrained color palette intensify the feeling of vulnerability and being lost. The viewer remains in doubt—is there an exit from the situation, and will it be safe inside when there is already a silent void surrounding it?
