I love Poplars. They stretch expressively towards the sky. There are a lot of these trees in my hometown. Poplars have become a symbol of the Donetsk region for me. The classic landscape of my city is: a flat horizon, a mine, a landfill, poplars, and a road connecting the mine and the area with five-story houses. I see them in bright colors, for me they are just pillars of fantastic fire, torches illuminating the way. I have combined both photography and painting in this category, because my experiments with photography are conceptually located between three directions, combining three ideas. Augmented reality, painting, photography. If I wish, I can consider them any of these three directions in art.
