Artist's Statement.
My work is a response to a modern photography, which in lots of cases lacks positivity and
colour. I want to make photography more colorful and less complicated in visual
perception. These thoughts pushed me to create my own direction which called PhotoFunArt. The
definition of PhotoFunArt appeared from elemental words - Photography, Fun and Art, so easy.
What makes a photography considered a photofunart? I derive a primitive formula:
Fantasy x (Saturated Colour+Fun Theme) = PhotFunArtwork.
Moreover, I believe that color will save the world. Using bright colors: green/red and other tonal
ranges, I hope to drag out a person from the grey workaday routine though for several minutes. I
make my works a little more saturated and it will help them morally not to bleach for many years. My
goal is to make people feel homy, comfortable and warm, to refine their minds from bad thoughts
and to fill them with color mood, to make a spectator smiling.
