Neo-icons
Periodically, the human reverse their vision of the God, from the Druid gods to the Olympian gods, then, suddenly, messiahs appear in different religions, and the entire world changes. We are living in the epoch of indoctrination, the so-called mental revolution. And in this world of material and spiritual values, there’s a vivid division of people according to the levels of their mindfulness. As usual, artistic personalities are the first to notice such changes in people’s consciousness, and they try to express it on a canvas. That is the background of the idea to create new images and icons in a heterodox style. It is the author’s tribute to the Time, the tough time when every person must born in this world twice – firstly, from his/her mother’s womb and secondly, wake up for a conscious perception of life to finally attain Spiritual Freedom.
