The Second Portrait of Hitchcock, 2014

Chursin often refers to Hitchcock in his art. He values the American director as a master of suspense (both creators' trademark). Applying postmodern painting techniques, Chursin creates an alarming feeling of anticipation. In The Second Portrait of Hitchcock and Retro Mercury, Chursin uses climactic shots from the American director’s most famous film, complemented with his signature, dizzying red and white pattern to emphasize the tension and suspense.
