"Catch the fish! (Moscow-Cassiopeia)" — original graphics
Author: Schedrina Mariya

paper/mixed media 42cm x 29cm 2025
A conceptual graphic work inspired by the aesthetics of Soviet science fiction cinema. In this piece, the artist reimagines visions of the future as seen from the past: a blend of sincere belief in progress and rigid social boundaries. The motif of "catching a fish" in a cosmic or futuristic context becomes a metaphor for seeking something living and authentic within a structured, "orderly" world.
The artwork is filled with internal dynamics: expressive acrylic strokes coexist with fine graphic hatching, creating a sense of air vibration or static on an old film screen. The grotesque image of the character conveys the artists childhood sensation — a mix of delight, fear, and laughter in the face of the mysterious "theater" of the adult world.
