Artist's Statement

"The greatness of a person is in his hands"


Hands are one of the most unique tools of the human body. They open to each of us a limitless world of the most diverse possibilities - to create, heal, protect, hug, even talk, but also destroy, cause pain... Therefore, it is not surprising that hands are a symbol of action, strength (physical and spiritual), as well as faith, blessings, peace, and hope. And this incredible fullness, spirituality, and secret depth make their image special for me as an artist. Each image of the hands that I draw is unique, with its destiny, filled with its eternal meaning, which is contemplated and filled with the forces of which they are a symbol...
