In the parody painting "Whistler's Mother," depicting a dog in the role of Whistler's mother, the original image symbolizing motherhood is replaced with a depiction of a dog. This elicits mixed feelings from the viewer and creates a concept based on irony and eccentricity.
The main idea of the painting is to play with the classical image of motherhood and its idealization. Replacing the woman with a dog emphasizes the absurdity of this idea and provokes reflection on how we perceive ideals and symbols in art and culture.
The concept of the work is grounded in irony and parody. The artist uses the classical image of the mother to present it in a new context, which elicits a smile and prompts contemplation about traditional values and symbols.
A deep analysis of the work's subtext touches on themes of transformation and questions of identity. Replacing the human image with that of an animal points to how humans define themselves through their relationships and roles in society. Additionally, it comments on how we project human qualities onto animals and what meanings we attribute to symbols in our culture.

Born in Uralsk, Kazakhstan, I discovered early that art was my voice—a way to translate the unseen emotions of both humans and animals onto canvas. My work lives at the intersection of raw expression and storytelling, where dogs become mirrors of human complexity and mythic women reclaim their narratives. 

Life shaped my perspective early: witnessing my mother's battle with illness, the absence of my grandfather (a painter I'd never meet), and the solitude of being an outsider sharpened my eye for unspoken truths. Painting became my rebellion—a place where vulnerability and strength collide. Self-taught but relentless, I've spent years mastering mediums from oil to digital, not for technique alone, but to capture the energy of a gaze, the weight of a pause.

Now, my art evolves into mythic territory—women of legend reimagined with contemporary fire, paired with dogs whose eyes hold centuries of wisdom. Every piece asks: What do we share with creatures we call "lesser," and what ancient power have we forgotten? 

My brush is my bridge—between species, between past and present, between Kazakhstan's steppes and the world's galleries.
