Pastel Drawings

“Planet Earth, XXI century”, 2014, pastel on paper; 24” x 18”

This work is about fragility of the planet we live on, which potentially, may be destructed by humans. Male hands represent the patriarchal world that dictates decisions leading to destructions (directly or indirectly). Female hands represent caring and loving matriarchal world that protects and cares for what’s left, symbol of life.

“A Mother”, 2014, pastel on paper; 24” x 18”

This piece demonstrates nurturing and guiding nature of mothers and an illusion of control. Illusion of their ability to protect their children from absolutely everything. We can love and care for our kids, but we cannot defy fate.
