Paintings by Renat Islamov

"For me, painting means making a connection between reality and the world of my dreams. Different feelings - desperation, joy, and impulsiveness - emerge simultaneously. My paintings show changes across time, fragments I perceived or imagined. Colors and light, lines and chaotic movements flow together to create an autonomous whole that ties individual and time together. Painting techniques become implicit, like breathing. Painting has a magnetic, mysterious quality that is impossible to understand. The power of painting is hidden in silence.

Being alive means constant change. I want to change as an artist all the time as well. My mood changes, no day is like the next. I have not found my own style, I am not thinking of looking for one. A painter with a characteristic style is like a person that is always standing in the rain or in the sun."

Renat Islamov was born in Tscheljabinsk, Russia in 1955. He studied art at the University of Leningrad which is St. Petersburg today. For 6 years, he worked for the government and developed the artwork in the center of St. Petersburg including the Newski Prospekt. His paintings have been exhibited in St. Petersburg and Moscow, in Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Munich, and Berlin.
