Eight Degrees of Perfection, Circa 2020

Kostya Amelinn  

The world through the eyes of an artist is almost always his own interpretation of the surrounding worlds, or his own world. Painting is one of the languages in which the artist creates images, mastering the art of storytelling, he is a traveler of a fascinating cosmos, the world of his own imagination. Having discovered in himself at one moment the talent for creating images, the artist tirelessly searches for an ideal world in which the idea and its embodiment do not distort each other with the imperfection of the methods, the embodiment itself. This is the sentence of this world, this is the artist's karma - to seek a combination of a perfect idea and a limited world. The artist is overcome by the desire to make his language perfect, worthy of an idea. From the construction of academic schools to complete abstraction from the image. He destroys the resistance of matter, builds his own imagination of style, he tries to master the instrument of magical perfection, or destroy in himself any imagination of canons. This is a path of suffering and incomprehensible pleasure, this is the path to which he is doomed by the fate of the artist, the path of perfection.
I embarked on this path full of great hopes and still do not give up
hopes to recognize the power that evokes images from nothingness that travel the canvases of my works. RHSHS Kyiv University, Poltava Polytechnic, Milan. Everything that added strength and inspiration, years of training, experiments to acquire an original style. I cherish the hope that I have time to improve.
With respect Kostya Amelinn
