About The Artwork

The inspirational idea for painting this particular diptych titled “The Spirit of Financial Markets” came into my mind while I was watching my husband at work. He is a professional financial markets’ trader and often refers to the market as to a living creature, which actually may sometimes turn quite aggressive and menacing. This is why I have imagined and then painted on the first ( left ) part of the diptych “the Spirit” of the financial market in the form of a hyena’s evil grin breaking out from within, through the glass of the computer screen, and right in front of the surprised and somewhat scared trader/investor sitting on the other side of the monitor. This trader/investor character is depicted on the second ( right ) part of the diptych as a smart and intelligent ape (orangutan-like) figure, apparently being in some emotional distress and worried for the outcome of his speculative venture. Both “monitor screens” are filled with numerous charts, graphs, quotes and other visual information related to the financial markets. The right painting (the view from within) looks like the exact mirror image of the left (frontal) view of the computer screen with the exception of the images of the hyena’s grin and the ape-like character. The first part of the diptych "Investor vs. Market". “The Spirit” of the financial market in the form of a hyena’s evil grin breaking out from within, through the glass of the computer screen.

I am a Russian - German - American Artist currently residing in Southern California. I find my inspiration in the world around me and in my loved one. I do not usually follow the same style in all of my artworks and while some of my paintings just depict the beauty of the real world around me, the others are more about telling different imaginary stories and revealing unusual characters and situations. My diptychs and triptychs are more like visual stories where the presentations from different perspectives depict common and not so common situations and circumstances. Such an artistic trick allows me not just to tell a certain story, but it also turns a 2D image into something similar to 3D object thus greatly expanding viewers’ visual experience and further stimulating their imagination.
