Description
Klish 75
Andriy Klishyn's painting "Aphrodite" presents a bold reinterpretation of the classical goddess of love and beauty. Instead of the traditional soft and ethereal depiction, Klishyn's Aphrodite is golden-skinned, bald, and exudes both confidence and mystery. She sits gracefully within an open shell, referencing the famous imagery of her birth from the sea, but her posture and expression convey a sense of playful introspection rather than divine idealization.The contrast between the radiant gold of her body and the deep, dark background emphasizes her presence as a luminous, almost celestial figure. The shell, rendered in muted tones, acts as both a throne and a protective barrier, symbolizing transformation, rebirth, and self-acceptance.Through "Aphrodite", Klishyn challenges traditional notions of beauty, femininity, and mythology. His version of the goddess is powerful yet enigmatic, embracing her uniqueness with an almost mischievous smile. The painting invites the viewer to reconsider cultural ideals of allure and perfection, celebrating individuality, confidence, and the beauty of self-awareness.
Presentation
Born on February 27, 1958 in the city of Kirovabad, Republic of Azerbaijan. Almost immediately after birth he moved to Eastern Kazakhstan, to the city of Ust-Kamenogorsk. Lived there for 15 years, graduated from school and grew up. In 1975 he moved to Crimea, and in 1978 he settled in eastern Ukraine, in the city of Gorlovka. He graduated from the Technical and Economic Institute and worked as an engineer, teacher, and then in the field of insurance, finance and banking. Since May 2014, a forced migrant has been living in Kyiv.
The artist about himself:
“As a professional artist, I started my career late, at 61 years old. But it is possible that this was what should have happened. Everything has its time. Rich life experiences have become the source of my creativity. My art is ambiguous and unlike any other, probably because “I paint with my heart." Sometimes I use an intuitive drawing, namely: not from life or from a photograph, but only what suits the subconscious, soul, heart.
Most importantly and completely unexpectedly for me, after a series of works I began to understand where my images come from... I think that I or my essence saw them in our past or future life.
Despite my little experience, I already have more than two hundred paintings, about forty of them have found “their home" in private collections and museums."
The paintings are in the Lutsk Art Museum, in the Korsakov Family Museum of Contemporary Art.
