The artist who shouldn't
In the picturesque interiors of the parents’ apartment, at abandoned tables, in deserted dusty corridors, the “memory of place” preserved the story of growth, search, formation, formulation of oneself, meanings and attachments, loneliness - a school of growth, a novel of education. In this natural connection of social and psychological memory, heavy dependence on the past, it is never clear whose flashback we saw, whose memories are recorded in large drawings depicting vintage windows, doors, furniture, refrigerators. Opening the door to the past, revealing his dependence on it, Agroskin projects time into space, where an unsurvived tragedy, a frightening mysterious thriller, lurks in deserted interiors.

The listed price is the initial bid for a charity auction and may not represent the artist's regular pricing.
