For Kostiantyn Zorkin, art is the tangible evidence of the existence of the soul. After all, it is through the language of art that one can communicate directly with the soul, bypassing the barriers of rational intellect.

The exhibition “Standoff…” includes works created during different periods but mostly during the past several decades. It culminates with the Phantoms series (2022-2023). This signature series is especially dear to the artist – it has started during the first months of the war which at the time seemed to go on forever.
