His credo: I am an hyperbolist, sophisticated symbolist, multi-styled. I avoid minimization & simplification. As I try to solve the ecological problems in Art, I often refer to mythology, to topics of Russian history & to ancient tales of many nations. Most motives I use belong to classical Art. I deprive them of their original meaning.
