My Exhibition at Cable Street Gallery was a transition from works on paper to paintings. For the first time i was showing paintings and after this show i almost abandoned work on paper - perhaps london climate and ceasing moving constantly with a roll of artworks behind my back was one of the reasons. may be i decided to slow down and think a little while? may be i was putting too much force into fragile paper skin with stubbing and scratching bringing it almost to destruction and i was looking for harder surface?

FROM ESSAY “STEPPE” WRITTEN IN 1998:
“Action as the way of the simultaneous realisation invents an open system in contrast to the aim-seeking approach; the system without points and conclusions; where points are non existing fractures and volumes unfolded into plane; where the understanding, the statement "I know", is some paranoid state if it is fixed and still. This is more about extension of action, increasing of freedom and flexibility of action, fluidity of it; going not to the limit. but mostly from the limits, not to the aim, but out of it.”
