"Movement". The cycle of "Silhouettes". Graphics. pencil
This picture is central to the cycle of "Silhouettes", A number of sequential images the figures in different positions is something like as forms of fixing in process of motion, like a reflection on the cinematic film.
The idea of the painting consists in the interpretation of the dynamic process as the sum of successive static states, which strictly correspond to each specific unit of time. This is a thinking about the starting point of the movement (the path begins with the first step) and about the finish of this movement (the result). The figures of a man on the painting have an additional meaning. They are the allegories of the cause-effect relationships of events and actions in the single process of motion. And the finding is simple and obvious: every previous element of the movement (action) determines the next, and the whole chain as a whole - the result, that is there is not by a fatalism and a predestination in the process from the outside, because the freedom of choice inherent to each figure, allegory, is present in each action. In turn, each action has the potential to change the ending (the result).
