«Sport and Revolution. An Athlete’s Everyday Life.» Oil on canvas, 140cm x 90cm. In this painting, I depicted everything I love 🫶: different types of cheese🧀, berries 🍓, nuts, and protein. I conceived this still life as a true celebration 🍾 of life, sports 🏋️‍♀️🏋️🏅. I wanted to return to the Renaissance, the glorification of man and his potential. I love sports myself and have been training 🏋️ a lot for the last year; the gym has become as much a regular activity for me as painting🖼️. What does revolution have to do with this? As you already know, I am literally obsessed with the theme of the Russian Civil War (1917-1922) and the first decade after its end. That’s why in the background is the 1927 poster «Sport and Revolution,» where an athlete is depicted holding a rifle and proposing to change the world 🌎. By the way, in the reflection, I’m wearing a red headscarf, which was fashionable in Russia in the 1920s. I’m holding a red ball, and I believe: people are strong, people can do a lot, people are the pinnacle of creation! Being strong and smart is wonderful!!!! Sports, painting, music—any art 🎭 makes us better, makes us think, and changes the world!!!! #sport #artsports #bigcanvas #avocadolover🥑 #stilllife
