About this artwork
Male sexuality is undoubtedly one of the most important themes in my art. I am inspired by a sensually opened mouth, a dreamy eyes, a gentle neck bend, a careless forelock, a bashful color in cheeks ... Sexuality and nature are the wild pagan forces. You can't understand the sexuality because you can't understand the nature. However, you can use it to discover the deepest and most forbidden things about yourself. And this investigation seems like…
the falling in a rabbit hole. You'll not get any particular things, but it will be very impressive experience. And I hope that somebody who looking at my works feels the implication to something unbelievable that cannot be banned.

« My art is selfish. Picturing something on my canvas, I take it into my soul. I draw only what I consider very beautiful, what I want to possess. »
Oleksandr Balbyshev is an experienced Ukrainian painter who has exhibited his work nationally. Male sexuality and sensuality are the most important themes in his art, and he uses the human figure to explore worlds within worlds. He additionally reinterprets iconic symbols of the USSR, including modified portraits of Lenin and other Soviet leaders that have since been banned in the Ukraine. Balbyshev ultimately achieves an artistic aesthetic marked by powerful pops of color, mystical surrealist elements, decorative qualities of kitsch and absurd aspects reminiscent of dadaism.
