ARTIST BIO: Oleg Zhivetin is a Russian painter born in Tashkent.
Russian icon painting is a basic and profound point-of-reference in Oleg’s work. The viewer will find religious imagery—golden halos, Madonnas, angels, and saints. Other typical icons include hearts, musical instruments, books, celestial beings, and flowers—symbols of beauty, delicacy, and spiritual development.
His characters often communicate through the use of hand gestures rather than eye contact. Gestures are imbued with subtle meaning; a deep sense of shared experience is created through this control of body language.
