We are surrounded by many objects that we sometimes do not even notice. Items that perform a certain function in human life, which appear and disappear in the urban environment surrounding us, to make our space cozy, convenient, comfortable.
But what if you remove everything from the urban environment and leave only objects created by people for temporary use: scaffolding, goats, fencing structures. They become independent art objects, beautiful in their absurdity, angularity, imperfection. A chaotic installation arises, the structure of which is constantly changing with the participation of various people. Every day a person brings or takes away an object, using it in his work, thereby creating a new composition, unlike the previous one.

Let's turn to the human being - the most beautiful creature our world has to offer!

A human movement in the context of a city is in effect a fleeting momentum that will never reoccur.
Just like light and shadow are elusive in our everyday life, so is every move of a human being - elusive, fleeting and irretrievable.
Human beings in the city without the city.

SUBJECT | SUPERRARE

Series *[ŚŪ]*, inspired by the philosophical concept of śūnyatā — a Buddhist view on emptiness, where all phenomena exist only in interdependence, without independent essence. The works, created with the help of artificial intelligence, explore the fragility of everyday reality in the urban world. They capture spontaneous scenes of urban crowds, where silhouettes of people dissolve in pixel distortions, glitches, and cutouts, symbolizing the illusoriness of individuality and connection in the digital age.

The connection between digital art and śūnyatā is manifested in the use of digital tools to demonstrate the "emptiness" of form: pixels and animations emphasize that visible reality is a temporary construct, devoid of essence, as śūnyatā teaches about the interconnected emptiness of all things. In these works, the crowd, seemingly dense and alive, fades into emptiness, reflecting loneliness in a hyper-connected society and inviting viewers to recognize the profound emptiness behind the facade of digital layers. The series challenges the traditions of static art, offering a dynamic experience of reflection on how technologies enhance the sense of śūnyatā — where the physical and virtual merge, leaving only an echo of absence.
