This works completes a series "Memory's Gloss"

The series was an experiment to work with a personal history. I collected certain memorable events from my life, mainly from my childhood. These events made a special impression on me. Each of them marks a change in my perception of the world and myself.
Frankly, I expected that the process of creating this series will produce a special effect on me, but I could not foresee the nature of its action.
The paintings were part of a bridge thrown into the past. The bridge consists of two supports. Events and his image in the picture. These mirrored elements created a bond that helped me release energy.
Energy closed in past events.
Thus, the tension that was encapsulated in my subconscious mind got a way out, in some cases changing not only me but also my surroundings.
The last picture of the series was especially difficult for me.
This gloss is represented by the face of a dead old woman. An event that I experienced at the age of about 5 years. I stood in a store in with my parents.
Suddenly in front of me on his back fell elderly woman. She died on the spot. I felt it.
At this point, the idea of death has become for me a matter on which I began to look for an answer, as much as my development as a child allowed.
I asked questions and asked questions to adults.
Over time, the sharpness of the impression faded away, but a trace remained in my memory. Unique event index...
