“”Symphony of the Earthly Structures III””, 2000. Universal harmony, the unity of senses, and general interrelation are being born symbolically in the meditative sounding of the painting series – “”Symphony of Earthly Structures””. Immersing ourselves into the contemplation of those canvases, we start to feel ourselves as a part of the world living by measure according to the laws of the Universe. That world or dreams and visions – a dream unresolved – discloses us the sphere of the unconscious that arises out of Freud’s psychoanalysis in absolutely new way, moving up to the new level of quality that could not be reduced to physiology.
