"Typhon

"A product of ancient times, the monstrous Typhon is defeated by the glamourous lightning of the present. In desperation, he decides to find the Golden Apple of immortality. Ironically enough, he eats a pomegranate fruit, the fruit of death, which destroys him completely. It is impossible to conqour the future by only relying on the past.

The mystery of the Theban sphinx

Heroes respresent the main driving force of our civilization. Since its inception, thousands of years have passed, but many exploits are still waiting for their heroes.

The fundamental feat that determines humanity's awareness of its destiny is the answer key of the riddle of the Theban Sphinx. The ill-fated Oedipus did not solve this riddle. He only clarified it. Now the ununswered question sounds like this: "What is a Man?" Combined efforts of many generations of researchers are required to answer the question.

The sculpture "The Riddle of the Theban Sphinx" is dedicated to the path taken by the researchers of the first printed description of the sea voyage. The voyage was recorded on the spirals of the Phaistos disk in the 17th century BC. It states the discovery of the chemical four-letter genetic language of human DNA: Thymine (T), Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G).

The Art of Great Work always aimed at finding the truth about Man. It is a civilizational bridge connecting the past with the present, which allows us to hope for the future.

"Pyramid of Consciousness"

Newfound time. What is time? What role does it play?

From the point of view of conscious art time itself does not exist. Conscious art exists in the cause-and – effect world and explains the purpose of the existence of Nature and Man in it. All its manifestations relate to the process of cognition and, consequently, the achievement of an absolute goal: the fulfillment of the Universe's strategic mission.

Time in metaphysics is an integral component of the real space-time continuum. In terms of Anaximander (610-540 BC), it is represented by Uranus-Cronus. Time in continuous motion in extremely compressed form is represented by Apeiron.

The movement towards an absolute goal requires a definition of the absolute value. Once formulated, the person is automatically transfered to a higher quality level. Anaxagoras (500-428 BC) took the advantage of the work of Thales, who stated: "The universe is intelligent" and derived the definition of absolute value.

It his opinion the Cosmic Mind, Nous, is the subtlest and lightest notion, which posesses complete knowledge of everything. It sets the cosmogonic process of formation of the cosmos in movement.

According to Heraclitus (544-475 BC). progress of objects and beings in the process of becoming the cosmos is defined by their intelligence and saturation with Nous. Therefore, their quality is defined by the level in the stream of ascent.

Every conscious artist who strives to express the meaning of existence, relies on the achievements of the past, "stands on the shoulders of giants" (Newton (1643-1727)). Ancient thinkers erected the first and only currently existing wonder of the world – the Pyramid. Natural philosophers interpreted the Pyramid as a symbol of the great ascent: the movement of the material world existing in time to the ultimate goal – contact with Eternity.

The newfound time is the awareness of your own Logos, which represents your personal level in the ascending universal stream.

The task of every conscious artist is to restore the integrity of the Pyramid of ascent by presenting a personal picture of the world in their artworks. A personal picture of the world is an imaginative logically constructed idea of truth, a hypothesis of the meaning of existence. To do this, you need to climb the staircase – levels of intelligence - quite high. This task is possible with the help of Lady of Philosophy while taking advantage of the rising tide of geniuses of the past and present.

Obviously, a Homo Sapiens Sapiens should hurry up in turning into a Homo Sapiens Conscious. A recently appeared dangerous rival - AI (artificial intelligence) can turn from an instrument into a new Kingdom of Nature if it calculates the meaning of the existence of the Universe.

The time has come to realise that we are not the final goal of The Creator.

We are only a means to understanding the purpose of the Earth.

"She is able to fulfill it with others

And then you and I will have one thing in common – nothing".

Translated from Arabic from Omar Khayyam's red notebook.

The patron of the conscious art of the ancient world, known in antiquity as Prometheus, and in the Christian era as Hermes Trismegistus, can provide significant support in this competition.

"Smile of Evolution"

The Mystery of Death.

Birth and death are the most contradictory concepts that cause a storm of emotions in a person. The mystery of these phenomena has given rise to many religious constructions that try to explain and profit by it. However, irreconcilable disputes testified to the fact that the issue was left without a complete answer.

While the answer to the mystery of birth - a person is born for an active life - was found long ago, the answer to the question why there is an endless series of births and deaths remains open. Intertwining of births and deaths create a great stream of life. People experienced great difficulties and made enourmous sacrifices in the search of a reasonable explanation.

The time has come and the key word has been found - Evolution. People are born and die for the sake of Evolution. Evolution is the steady progressive movement of the stream of life capable of understanding and fulfilling the requirements of Reason in achieving the Goal. The Goal we can only wonder about.

"Absolute Reality"

Heraclitus, with his saying "Panta rhei or Everything flows", made a brilliant guess about the evolutionary essence of the Universe, in which an irrepressible process of development takes place, the purpose of which is to comprehend the essence of the Creator. All the works of the human spirit: language, art, science, religion, morality - all are an echo of this process and the task of Man to combine image and meaning without distortion into a single whole believing that the image without meaning is meaningless, and the meaning without image is unimaginable.

The sculpture "Universe. Absolute Reality" is an attempt to unveil the fog of mysticism from notions of God, The Universe and Man.

The motto of the sculpture is “Man is the measure of all things”.

Protagoras' saying reveals the aim of human existence. Mankind, like a bunch of grapes, is getting ripe on the vine of the Universe which emerges as the embodiment of the Creator's conscience. Man serves as a self-study and self-conscience tool of the Creator.
Participating in the endless evolution of the Universe, Man works out his way home to the Creator and tries to imagine the absolute reality through familiar images. The Absolute is the sail and the wind caressing it, the raging sea and the velvet sky, the above and the below. The Absolute is self-sufficiency.

"Transformation"

New times have brought forward the idea of achieving immortality through making personal efforts on understanding the meaning of a human’s existence, through deliberate personal participation in perpetual development of the Universe which we can see as a transformation of simpler forms of life into more complicated ones. The process of transformation is far from its completion, which is the most important thing to be understood.

"Pushkin. The Constellation of The Lyre"

"I will not give up a mythology and will always fight for it. You say just one word and immortal images emerge. And if a reader doesn't know, it's not my fault, and he should know! Take care of that." A. S. Pushkin

It was in the poet's childhood when he obtained a specific attitude to life and death as a personal destiny. It happened due to reading mysterious books from his father's library, where he, left to himself, stayed up late. The poet’s father had a vast collection of rare books among which the books published by the Russian educator and enlightener Nikolay I. Novikov. In his youth, while at the Lyceum, Pushkin, a fifteen-year-old student, found himself in the inner circle where the ideas he had driven from those mysterious books found a response and further development. Reflecting on the destiny of Man and a poet, Alexander imagined how his soul would direct its way to the constellation Lyra flying past the moon, and then the Sun, in order to become finally a much-needed part of the Universe.

Later, in exile in Bessarabia, the poet was destined to meet with Ivan N. Inzov who at his young age belonged to the legendary circle of Nikolay I. Novikov. Thus, the poet found a mentor and like-minded person. Due to that acquaintance Alexander was involved in the world of heroic humanism full of ideas about the meaning of Man’s existence and originating in ancient Greek philosophy and mythology. Those ideas took shape, colour and image in the poet’s poetry: the soul becomes immortal only on the path of self-knowledge and the fulfillment of Man's destiny. In the Requiem poem “The Monument”, the poet confirms his belief in this:

Not all of myself will die – due to the cherished lyre

My soul will survive, escape corruption leaving ashes cold –

The glory I deserved will last until the only poet here

Will stay alive beneath the moon that lights the World.

Completely not I’ll die- Completely and utterly won’t I die -

Because of the cherished lyre

My soul corruption will escape my ashes leaving cold -

The glory I deserved will last until a poet

Will stay alive in this sublunary world.

Devoted to the Calliope.

And glorious will I be, as long as in the sublunary world

At least one piit will live.

Completely I’ll not die, my soul of cherished singing
Will outlive my frame and ever won’t be ceased,
Decided fame I will enjoy while there is living
At least a single lyricist.

"Eos again..."

Eos, the goddess of the dawn, every morning pulls back the veil of night and illuminates the earth so that Man awakens with the desire and aspiration to live a new day bearing in mind the meaning of his existence.

Eos sees the coming changes from the height of her flight. The world we are familiar with has changed and continues changing. The rising dawn of a new era opens up new challenges and opportunities for peoples and countries, and Russia accepts the challenge of time.

"Argo: my ship of conscious art"

Argo is the ship where 50 heroes of Ancient Greece gathered in search for the Golden fleece, which brings happiness to the country possessing that treasure. The expedition was not successful for all the participants, but it served as an occasion for reflection for following generations.

For me as an artist, one of the sources of energy is primarily the energy originating from Ancient Greece. Only there will you meet such a variety of different beings: gods of different generations, Titanic peoples, chimerical monsters, people of the "Five Ages " of humanity, and, of course, a tribe of heroes whose efforts allow to keep the ship of conscious art close-hauled with each tack. Their exploits transform our world, making it more harmonious and complex at the same time.

Ancient Greece gained truefame by becoming the cradle of philosophy - the basis of scientific thinking which created the prerequisites for the birth of new ideas and the transformation of the individual and society. Striving for a feat gives a person some new qualities which meet the terms of human evolution.

Overcoming waves of years and decades the ship of conscious art every hundred years rises to the crest of another century from which a wide panorama of life opens. Luckily, we are living at the time of the age and epoch’ change. From the top of a steep wave you can look beyond the far horizon of events and clarify the course to the intended Contact. This is our chance and we must take full advantage of it.
