Usually, animals are perceived as imperfect speechless creatures, and people look down

on them, considering themselves the masters of this world. For me, animals are not

primitive creatures that live only by instincts, but living beings that, like us, go through

life, gain experience and evolve. And the fact that they are silent does not mean that

they have nothing to say to us. This is a whole universe that we are unlikely to be able to

fully understand. I cry when I see beached whales. Why do they do this? What do they

want to tell us? I do not know. But I want to know. Therefore, working on this topic is

my personal research, because I want to get answers to such questions, and I have many

of them. I’m not sure if I can get all the answers, but I’ll keep drawing. I want animals

to communicate with us from the canvases of my works. I want them to talk about how

they feel good or what hurts them. They spoke without words. And let each of us hear

his own.
