1995
Amnesia
In my Amnesia project photography becomes the starting point for painting, the image prototype.
A faint imprint that lives deep down in the unconscious becomes an object for artistic experimenting. Only this imprint is true and transferable into the actual reality.

The aestheticization of canvas space and texture games with the image are characteristic of Viktor Sydorenko. This is especially evident in the deliberate aestheticizing of texture craquelure, which creates the effect of sacralizing canvas space, in the colour range of frescoes, and in the reception of themes and topics characteristic of the 20th century as symbols of time (the projects Cytochronisms, Amnesia, Ritual Dances). The artist works not only with the media of painting or object, but synthesizes spatial relations and life values. In other words, thinking in spatial categories, and not just perceiving the exhibited objects with the senses, is the characteristic feature of modern art.
