The question is: how, how does a person realize and define the visible world? How do we distinguish between objects of reality and then call things by words? What orients us in space, in the material. The "INDEFINABLE" series is an attempt to talk about the visible world, about matters that would not be amenable to any characteristics, would not have categories of quality by which we can give at least some kind of assessment to the work. Can we find out and name at least one element inside the painting? At first glance, it seems to be quite realistic. However, when we try to figure it out, we realize that we don't understand anything.  The work is completely devoid of any quality categories. They don't have any distinct characteristics. There is no top, no bottom, no space, no depth, no light, no shadow, this is not a portrait, this is not a still life, this is not a situation, this is not a story, this is not a drawing, this is not a project, this is not an abstraction, this is not a text, this is not an object, this is not an installation. Trying to figure it out and give an immediate and simple answer suffers a decisive defeat.
