Description by Fyodor Krasniy
This work is a phantasmagoria of horror and beauty and the fear of the realisation that it is slowly becoming a topic of fascination. rn

I recognize her - well, is she really the same as in Painkillers - Sedation?

Yes, you would be very right on that one.
The medical Series (2008 - 2009) are a reflection of severe mental/emotional trauma as I was going through a break up (and not just a relationship) The \'white background\' works were about healing in the most unorthodox of ways; Substance abuse, insomnia, mental breakdowns - all thrown onto the pages. At the time I believed that \'white\' was just as dark as black (I still believe that actually) so I used colour and \'purity\' to explore the darkest sides of myself. Anastasia (Proper title is Euthanasia) was my Muse who led me down these paths.
The medical works (there are a lot of them - over 450) got me through. Its not something I would recommend to anyone.
