Description

In “Dance of Eternity," I sought to express the philosophical concept of the eternal cycle of life, where death and elemental forces exist in harmonious balance. The golden skulls in the center, set against a red and blue background, embody enduring symbols of eternity and transition. They gaze at us with an enigmatic smile, inviting the viewer to look beyond the visible and contemplate the inevitable beauty of the cosmic cycle.

The contrasting shades of deep blue and vivid red represent the duality of night and day, the material and the spiritual, emphasizing the eternal rhythm that binds them. In each corner, golden circles contain the symbols of the four elements – Fire, Water, Air, and Earth – highlighting the sacred unity of the forces of nature.

On the sides, silver and gold circles symbolize the Moon and the Sun, reminding us of the perpetual interaction of light and darkness, yin and yang, shaping the cosmic dance of existence.

The background, composed of countless tiny skulls, creates a pulsating depth that evokes the very fabric of time. Each small skull acts as a moment, a symbol reminding us that life and death intertwine in an endless dance, and we are temporary participants in this vast flow.

“Dance of Eternity" speaks to those who seek both beauty and philosophical depth in art. This work will resonate with collectors drawn to conceptual pieces rich with multilayered symbolism. It is more than an image; it is a meditative object that reveals the essence of infinity and reminds us of our connection to the grand cosmic cycle.

Presentation

ANDRII LAPONOV
(b. 1978, Ukraine)
Lives and works in the United Kingdom.

Andrii Laponov is an artist whose practice brings together figuration, abstraction, and traditional gilding techniques. His work is centered on the construction of surface, where metal, light, gesture, and layers of paint operate in continuous interaction.

Laponov’s background in restoration workshops shaped his attention to the materiality of painting and the structure of the image. He studied Byzantine and classical European techniques, including gesso preparation, bole application, and traditional gilding processes. This experience established the foundation of his approach to image-making through the interaction of material, light, and surface.

Working across canvas, wooden panel, and synthetic paper, Laponov employs oil, acrylic, gold, silver, copper, ash, and industrial varnishes as active elements within the painting itself. His works develop through processes of layering, abrasion, and surface disruption, where metallic reflection, oxidation, and the density of the painted surface become integral to the structure of the work.

Within Laponov’s practice, the figure often appears in a state of emergence or dissolution. Alongside figurative compositions, he produces abstract series grounded in gesture, movement, and the density of the painted layer. Fragmented forms, sacred references, and the use of metal establish a distinctive visual language throughout his work.

His works have been presented in museum and international exhibition projects including the Odesa Museum of Western and Eastern Art, the Museum of the History of Kyiv, Maison de l’Europe, Paris, and Halle aux Blancs Manteaux, Paris. His works are held in private collections across Europe, the United States, and Asia, as well as in the permanent collection of the Odesa Museum of Western and Eastern Art. His work has been presented at auction by Phillips, London.

Laponov is a member of the Ukrainian artists’ association «Tvórchist» (“Creativity”).
