Il'ya Martynov - TOPOGRAPHY. canvas, acrylic, pastel, mixed media, 50x40cm, 2021 “We wandered into an area with a strong magical index, ” he explained. - Once upon a time a powerful magical field was formed here. “That's it, ” said a bush passing by. “ - Terry Pratchett About the artist: Born in the USSR, and his views were formed in the era. Having finished school as an external student at the age of 15, he was ready to become a journalist. But life decided otherwise. I chose by no means a philosophical specialty. Having received two higher educations, having experience in various fields of activity, I came to the conclusion that the usual schemes are being violated in the world, and familiar phenomena look different. I live and create in a dacha in the suburbs with my beloved cat, as a way to fight against the chaos of life around me. I am not a public person. I have been writing and exhibiting my work in the online gallery since 2009. I try to find an original approach in seeing the world around me, which often surprises and sometimes shocks people. My brain produces ”jazz improvisations” and works ”without score and conductor”, displaying what is happening around me through the color of lines, shapes, texture. I do not copy life, I create it. Hope your brain is ready for a little reboot.
