My name is Paul Yunin (1992 of the b.). I'm an artist from Russia, working in St. Petersburg. By education - an engineer. I studied painting and sculpture by myself. I work in the style of dark surrealism, but not trying to stay within the frames of the genre. Rather, on the contrary, I trying to avoid stamps that have developed in different kinds of dark styles of world art. There are not a goal to depict a horror story, cause anxiety in the viewer. I have a need for experiment and a search for new ways of expressing an idea. Because with this, since the fall of 2017 I almost completely switched to sculpture. At the beginning of my work, I tuning in to the wave of maximum openness of soul and sincerity. My task is to convey the light and darkness of my own experiences, feelings, thoughts as accurately as possible with the help of non-verbal images, and of the archetypes. Behind thorn spikes, suffering of heroes and unearthly matters there is spiritual nakedness, liberation from the burdensome conventions of the surrounding world and striving for truth, at all cost, whether it is pleasant or cruel.
