"Sparrows Have Arrived, and the Rooks Are Going... You Know Where" 140x75 cm, oil on canvas, 2022-2024
The idea to create a painting titled "Sparrows Have Arrived" came to me before the war. I was convinced that, despite the tension between Ukraine and russia, no one would dare to commit such a horror as invading another country with war. Back then, in January-February 2022, I planned to create an artwork inspired by the title of famous russian painting "The Rooks Have Returned," thinking it would be a lighthearted, humorous response to the unfolding events. However, after the war began, it became impossible to continue working—because of the shelling and all the terror that drains the peace from the heart. Yet, after a year and a half of the full-scale invasion, in moments of silence and hope, I gradually finished the painting.
For me, this painting represents a universe where there is no war, where peace and harmony reign. It is my symbol of hope that soon there will be no war in our reality either. Ironically, I gave it a new title: "Sparrows Have Arrived, and the Rooks Are Going... You Know Where," as a reminder of those we are no longer waiting for.
