The painting titled "Cold Gulf Stream" is a surreal and provocative depiction of nature, designed to evoke deep reflection and unease. Set in an expansive, snow-covered landscape, the composition features a group of penguins in the foreground, with a solitary polar bear in the background near a frozen waterway. However, the penguins are not merely standing on the ice — they are holding hand grenades on their feet instead of the eggs they would naturally protect in the wild. This unsettling twist transforms the painting from a simple Arctic scene into a powerful metaphor.The penguins, painted with lifelike precision, appear calm and composed despite the explosive objects at their feet. This surreal detail adds an ominous tension to the composition, symbolizing the intrusion of violence into the natural world. The grenades serve as a metaphor for humanity's destructive influence on wildlife, illustrating how even the most innocent and vulnerable creatures are not untouched by human conflict and technology. The penguins, creatures known for nurturing life, now unwittingly cradle symbols of destruction, highlighting the fragile balance between life and annihilation.In the background, the polar bear gazes across the icy expanse with an air of detachment and solemnity. Its isolation amplifies the painting's themes of disconnection and the unnatural state of the environment. The polar bear's separation from the penguins, who would never naturally share a habitat, underscores the deliberate surrealism of the scene. This choice invites viewers to ponder the artificiality of the setting and the broader impact of human actions on nature.The muted, icy palette of whites, blues, and greys creates a chilling atmosphere, reflecting the stark beauty and harshness of the Arctic. The artist's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, enhancing its eerie and contemplative tone.Through "Cold Gulf Stream," the artist delivers a powerful commentary on humanity's impact on the natural world. The juxtaposition of penguins and grenades symbolizes the way violence and human interference permeate even the most untouched corners of the Earth. The painting challenges viewers to confront the consequences of their actions on the environment and the creatures that inhabit it. It is a haunting reminder of the fragile balance between life and destruction, urging us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and its ecosystems.

Presentation
Oleg Kateryniuk was born in 1969 in Ukraine.. has made a successful career as a graphic designer.. But, over the years we become more sensitive to people, to nature, to the environment, to everything around us. So something happened, noticed, interested you and sits in you, with its emotions, feelings, its truth and philosophy.. no-no, it does not bother you, just sometimes, as if talking to you, tells your story, pulls your strings souls, and are forced to flee in search of something new, still unnoticed, and very, as it seems at this time, so necessary.. and not only you.. And in such moments you take a pencil, brushes and everything at hand.. and you draw.. being left alone with canvas or paper and your thoughts..
