In these works, the inspiration came from the Byzantine and later Russian iconographic tradition. I used authentic techniques from the earliest stages of creating the artwork: first, I made the board from a log using only hand tools, then processed and shaped it. The next stage was preparing the traditional ground for icon painting - levkas, and finally, mixing egg tempera from natural pigments, which gives the works uniqueness and a special character that sets them apart from works created using modern techniques. But the main task was to emphasize the contrast with the subjects that I used for them. This work is a reflection on the theme of modern emigration, where the board itself represents, as it were, a window of passport control. The melancholy inherent in the Byzantine style of depicting faces adds additional tragedy, which is a metaphor for the difficulties faced by modern migrants fleeing from military, political, and economic threats in search of security and stability
