Roman Romanshyn
"I always loved to listen to and feel materials that were primitive and simple: stone, wood, bronze, the heavy spirit in the beauty of old painting, the ancient gessoed icons, the archaism of archaic ceramics. There is so much hidden in the material itself that it’s simply enough to listen attentively to its melody. When a potter is spinning a pot on a potter’s wheel, then, according to the theory of relativity, and from the viewpoint of the pot itself, the whole world, including the potter, is spinning around it. The creative process is always built on mutual understanding and mutual respect between the artist and the material with which he is working.
Art is a territory, where one can rediscover things that have already been discovered as a consequence to one’s “differentness” . In search of new aesthetic forms, like no one else, one senses how similar the evolution of culture is to a spiral. Art of the twentieth century and art of Trypilian culture have much more in common than it seems at first glance."
