32POTAP
"Passage" by Ed Potapenkov presents a view into a dimly lit tunnel, with a striking beam of light shining at its end. The tunnel's interior is cloaked in shadow, with only faint hints of color and textured walls, giving the viewer a sense of depth and solitude. A lone figure stands near the entrance of the light, symbolizing a journey or transition toward an unknown destination. Potapenkov likely aimed to express themes of hope, resilience, and the pursuit of light amidst darkness, suggesting that even through obscurity, there is a guiding path forward. This work captures the emotional tension between confinement and liberation, inviting viewers to interpret their own journeys through challenges toward clarity.
Presentation
Born in 1968 (Dnipro, Ukraine)
1983 to 1987 - Dnepropetrovsk Art School named after E.V. Vuchetich (teachers L. Antonyuk, G. Cherneta)
I have a higher education. In 1995 he graduated from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture (workshop of easel painting of Professor V. Shatalin)
I live and work in Kiev. (Ukraine)
Since 1990 he has participated in many group and personal exhibitions both in Ukraine and abroad.
From 1993 to 1996 he was a member of the art association "Cold VEL".
Permanent member of the creative group "Squat on Olegovskaya".
Works are in private collections in Ukraine, Russia, Poland, Great Britain, Spain, Netherlands, USA, People's Republic of China (Hong Kong), Singapore.
With the help of art I strive to change myself. In my work, I try to raise current topics of our time associated with the problems of globalization, ecology, the collision of the human personality and society, self-identification.
In each work I bring my own reality, a separate story. Inviting the viewer to a visual dialogue, I urge him to decide whether this is a fake world or a real one.
I take part in various joint projects and coloborations.
In addition to painting, I am engaged in sculpture, installation, and often I combine these areas with video and sound.
I am in constant search, I believe in myself and in art.
... the unconcealed virtuosity of the smear of Edward Potapenkov, the ability of several brush strokes to convey the most prominent angle of the body, the bulge of a capricious shape .... The contents of the artifact are not at all costing if their good intentions are not confirmed by an adequate level of formal decision: not enough, but it is absolutely necessary condition for the existence of a master artifact.
