Flowers. Rocks. Beauty
The illustrations for the 2016 calendar were generated as an attempt to capture the multi-layered nature that surrounds us in this versatile world. In this world, stones, like flowers, sprout on the surface of the planet Earth. Flowers, in their turn, are considered to be the solid evidence of the concept of beauty, and the most obvious example of it.

My attempts to understand the nature of beauty led to the discovery of two opposite poles. On the one hand, there are flowers, which are the clearest example, the quintessence of beauty, its most common embodiment. At the same time, the stone is not an antagonist of beauty, it is not ugliness per se, but the absence of beauty. Reflections on this matter in 2015 turned into a calendar and its collages are presented on this page.
