About the Item

In “Games,” Ihor Volkov-Tkachynskyi delves into the ethereal world of childhood memories, reimagining archival photographs of his mother from a children’s theater. The scene, once rooted in reality, becomes an abstract composition where geometric shapes and vibrant contrasts merge into a surreal vision. Children morph into blooming flowers, and amidst them, mythical angels subtly emerge—guardians of innocence and play. The painting’s rhythmic geometry and contrasting colors reflect the tension between fragility and resilience, while the fluid forms suggest a dreamlike dance. Influenced by Japanese lithography and its flat perspective, Volkov-Tkachynskyi masterfully balances abstraction and narrative, creating a visual symphony that evokes both nostalgia and transformation. Created during the full-scale war in Kyiv in 2025, “Games” captures a fleeting sense of joy and harmony amid chaos—a tribute to the enduring spirit of childhood and the transformative power of memory.
