Oil on linen · 120 × 120 cm · 2026
Completed on the 500th day of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, The 500th Day is not a depiction of war but a painting created within it. Rather than illustrating events, it explores how prolonged historical experience reshapes perception, memory, and human presence. Built through successive transparent oil glazes on fine linen, the work gradually reveals its depth through sustained looking.
Materials
Michael Harding & Old Holland professional oil colours on Belgian linen.
Notice that the materials are separated.
Why?
Because collectors who care about Michael Harding and Old Holland are already interested in archival quality. Those who don't know these brands don't need them interrupting the conceptual narrative.
