Night walk, 2020

Val Limonadov balances on the verge of surrealism and kitsch, both in plot and style. Light composition and diagonal rhythm in his works create fantastic theses about the world of pretentious reality, from which new chimeras and phantoms emerge and produce new illusions. This painting explores the concepts of reality and fiction, resulting in a new unresolved world. The image's emotional intensity is reinforced by deliberate rigidity of the shape, while the thin paint surface leaves the impression of conventionality. Despite the intensity, the work maintains inner harmony by balancing the internal elements.
