"I aim to understand and, by my own vision, deny the view of the world, which is happening in only one point of space and time and introduces the logical dimension into the painter’s surrounding. This condition that is offered to our reason and our perceptual experience is only one of numerous interpretations of the world. Even an objective picture of reality in a given moment reveals only one of its possible viewings. I attempt instead to encourage new creations, outside of the fenced world of perceptual experience; to convert dreams of reality to the reality of life."

The photographic realism of Sergei Aparin’s pictorial style, makes the sensational and visionary
Neo-Surrealist world concrete.
In his paintings the sense of death and the feeling of anguishby space and time are suspended in a sort
of fragmentation, where paintings become meteors, depicting a shifting, a change and a transformation
of the only original and ultimate image, the one created by the mind.
As Dalì before him, Aparin becomes Classical, finding his inspiration in Renaissance painting,
although he never loses track of the irrational subconscious’ sings, held dear by the Surrealist painting.
“Keeper of Time”, “Emperor of the Imaginary”, he is crowned by two ram heads laid on top
of a crystal throne, lit up by an invisible source of light.
There seats Sergei,
taking control over irrational flux in the conscious elaboration and representation of his unsettling, concrete and yet visionary photographic realism,
in a pictorial manifestation the spirit dominion on the nature.
“Guardian of Time”, belonging to his realm is the cuckoo' s echo.
