About the Work
About the Artist

The painting is one from the painting cycle “Balance of Power”, in which the artist comprehends the themes of behavioral patterns and subpersonalities of human nature. The theme of bodily vulnerability and fragility. The theme of technological aggression: living flesh is broken down into pixels, the painting image takes on digital features and dissolves in the space of the canvas, human figures multiply, split and disintegrate into fragments.

The artist is interested in the problem of searching for the sense of painting heritage, the analysis of picturesque expression. The basis of his works, apart from the objects and figures, are also the color, shadows and airy environment, which they create.

Zhernokluev's work is held in a number of public collections, includin the State Russian Museum (St.Petersburg, Russia), Moscow Museum of Modern Art, National Art Museum of Ukraine (Kiev, Ukraine), Museum of The History of Religion and Art (Kiev, Ukraine), Theodosia Literary Memorial Museum of A.S.Green (Crimea), Belgorod State Museum (Belgorod, Russia), Mizel Museum (Denver, USA), Russian Fund of Culture and Russian Academy of Arts.
