Marat Kadyshev, artist

“I do not look at the world of running lines.
My dreams are only the eternal life submissive.
Let the sirocco rage in the desert.
The gardens in my heart are always patterned”.

Painting for Marat Kadyshev is the liberation of the consciousness from the vanity of being, cleansing it to perceive and experience the beauty. The painter transforms the world around us through his inner spiritual sense, increasing the impression of the reality and concentrating on it. A rare gift of the artist is shown in the works of Marat Kadyshev. It is the internal integrity of the original states of the soul that provides a glimpse into the depths of the universe. Hence, the spontaneous relevance of his art and the unity of the two worlds: the external and the internal ones.

Much attention is paid by this artist to the texture of his works. First, he makes the relief on the canvas, and then runs the colors as it is important to unite the idea and its plastic solution. The artist's works are tactile. You feel like not only watching them but touching the paintings. You need true contemplation to understand the patterns of Marat Kadyshev that means your self-identification with the portrayed objects. Then a special meditative artist's work and the pursuit of philosophical generalization will be opened. The building of beautiful master tracks is permeated by poetry and it becomes a moral construction of his own personality to you.
