About this artwork
The painting is called "Piercing", it is a puncture on the body for the sake of decoration with various objects. But the body of the catfish is not punctured of its own free will, not for the sake of decoration. The cracks in the body of the catfish, as it were, speak of scars, about the experience received during a long life. This is a sad irony, each hook is like a memory of falling in love, of a love affair, of past impressions. And as a result,…
the heart is pierced not by an arrow, but by a hook, as it happens in the underwater world of love.

« In a puddle left by the tide, feel the whole ocean, that's the power of a true artist. -Carlos Castaneda »
Andrei Petkevich is an award-winning artist based in Belarus whose paintings have been exhibited nationally and in Ukraine. Creating in themed series, his most recent works explore who we are, where we come from, as well as the influence of the cosmos and religions on human consciousness. Petkevich's artistic expression is translated through the language of surrealist imagery in dialogue with the viewer. He primarily employs acrylics and oils on canvas.
