Every time a son or daughter of Mother Earth leaves this world, her heart shatters into a thousand pieces.
She ages beyond her years, burdened by centuries of sorrow, tears, and loss.
This painting is a tapestry of grief and resilience — a chronicle of the Kazakh steppe where blood, fire, and memory intertwine. Warriors ride beneath vast skies; nomadic caravans march through shifting sands; the cry of the eagle echoes over mountains and water. At the center, an aging maternal figure mourns in silence — not just one child, but generations lost to time, war, and forgetting.
Traditional ornaments rise from the black soil, each a symbol of life, spirit, and cultural soul. They bloom defiantly from the charred earth like prayers.
“Qara Zher” speaks of a land that remembers — and a mother who never stops grieving.

This painting was inspired by a documentary about Lembata — an island where life flows to the rhythm of the sea and ancient traditions remain alive.
In the foreground is an ordinary day, filled with the quiet anticipation of a great journey. The men prepare their boat, blending ancestral knowledge with the harsh demands of the ocean.
But this is more than fishing. It’s a preparation for a whale hunt — a ritual woven into the culture, where the sea nourishes, tests, and connects.
Fishermen is not just about craft — it's about courage, community, and the ability to live in harmony with the powerful forces of nature.

Description:
Albasty is a powerful, haunting portrayal of the unseen dangers that often surround pregnancy and motherhood. Inspired by Turkic folklore, Albasty is a mythical demon who preys on women during childbirth—often blamed for sudden illness or death in mothers and newborns. In this painting, she takes form as a twisted old woman with sagging, elongated breasts, lurking in the shadows of a cave littered with eerie signs of her evil—stolen child souls, scurrying rats, slithering worms, and poisoned waters turning from calm blue to sickly green.
Outside the cave, unaware of the danger behind her, a pregnant woman stands in shallow water, captivated by a dramatic natural scene: waterfalls, cliffs, and swirling fog that veil the true threat. The viewer sees her from the unsettling perspective of a caged observer—helpless to warn her, trapped in silence.
Albasty is more than just a myth—she symbolizes the very real, very modern threats that expectant mothers face: domestic violence, neglect, and the silent suffering that too often leads to preventable tragedy. This painting is a cry for awareness, a demand for protection, and a reminder that the true monsters are not always fantasy—they live in shadows of indifference and silence.
Let this work be both a warning and a call: protect those who give life, and never look away from the unseen dangers they face.
