The Flight

Flight. Night flight. We are flying in a dream. Birds are flying. Is the fall also a flight? Flight is freedom. Flight is an arrow heading towards a target. Flying is the way to get to your destination. Flight is space. Angels ... music ... silence ... express their vision of flight. Take a journey into your imagination. Share your unique experience and fly with me!

Art No: PP0650

Artwork Dimensions: 58 cm (23.2 inches) x 75 cm (30 inches)

Year Created: 2020

Medium: Acrylic Surface: CanvasPhoenix is one of my favourite symbols. It’s a mythical bird which can burn itself and is reborn from the ashes in the freshness of youth. A phoenix symblolizes birth, death, renewal and hope. Death can’t defeat phoenixes, they fly high again. Flying is freedom, flying is life.

Art No: PP0623


Year Created: 2021

Medium: Oil Surface: CanvasIn my painting, I wanted to show that joy and optimism make us “grow wings”, that we feel that we can fly. Regardless of where we are and what we do, let us try to appreciate our lives, let us try to see the happiness that surrounds us. Let us help ourselves and appreciate the smallest gestures of kindness. Let’s look to the future with optimism, instead of finding new obstacles. Let us have dreams, let us pursue our passions. Then our wings will grow — they will not be visible to the world, but we will know that we have them...

Susy Kamber: Song for the Birds and People That Fly

Art No: PP0653


Year Created: 2020

Medium: Other Surface: PaperThe sound of the leaves written primarily by trees.As such was the beauty heard plainly with ease.Up mountains, round rivers.A song for the birds.For the people that fly there.Across valleys was heard.Now what be the mention of this, you may wonder,Alone to unravel the blur from down under.A song can be sung from the language of trees.I heard in the sky and then carried to thee.

Susy RabiscArt: Sailing in the Water

Art No: PP0593

Artwork Dimensions: 42 cm (16.8 inches) x 30 cm (12 inches)

Year Created: 2020

Medium: Ink Surface: Watercolor PaperThe “spaceship whale” airship is in an environment that is part sky and part water. There are moments that are at the bottom, and others are at the top. When we use gas to float, we fly, we believe in our wings. On this flight we carry people, some are passersby (who are represented by the fish) others will accompany the journey together (who are inside the transport cabin). Flying is always present when we walk our own path.

Art No: PP0589


Year Created: 2019

Medium: Oil Surface: CanvasFor me, flying is a detachment from the ordinary, it is a game of imagination, when it is pleasant-ordinary things and activities begin to coexist with the unusual and sublime. There are simple and familiar objects in the picture, but there is also my imagination, which sets everything in motion and spiritualizes what seems to us banal and unspiritual. In the Flight of my imagination, I want to stop my momentary understanding and combine the simple and the complex. This is my flight (or attempt at it).

Art No: PP0606

Artwork Dimensions: 80 cm (32 inches) x 59 cm (23,6 inches)

Year Created: 2020

Medium: Oil Surface: CanvasBirds are the creatures of freedom. They are flying free, they can reach unattainable places and distances, they can fly over seas, forests, mountains and towns.When I was child I was a bird in my most beautiful dreams, with huge wings I could rise high and was flying above the houses. Flying is happiness!

Vasanthi Gandhi: Flying into the Dreamland

Art No: PP0596


Year Created: 2020

Medium: Acrylic Surface: CanvasI used to frequently dream of flying when I was a child — by escaping from my room through the window and flying over the mountains, rivers, changing the shape along the way. Tried as I may to fly when I was awake, I believed that I could actually fly in my dream and visit the enchanted places.

Medium: Acrylic Surface: Canvas“Away We Go” was painted in acrylics on canvas. This piece sparks a youthful note within me, and reminds me of how much more simple life used to be. Imagination was the key, and it’s something that needs to be acknowledged more in today’s world.

Curator’s Note

Thank you to all artists who applied for the exhibition THE FLIGHT. It was a tough challenge, I know. It’s much harder to CREATE than COPY.

It was difficult for me to choose 20 finalists. I made the decision based on the “subject”, not the painting or drawing skills you’ve shown. I liked some of the works for their sense of humor.

I have selected the three best works to choose the winner, and my heart is drawn to the most dynamic one. I know how difficult it is to show motion on a static canvas, and appreciate that someone made it clear.

I wish all artists the best in your creative career.

Enjoy who you are!

Regards

Nick Fedaeff

Gallery’s Note

How many travel plans were postponed last year? How many flights were canceled? How many new places did we miss? But there is no need for a raincheck on the flights of our imaginations. In our dreams, we can hit the road at any time and go as far as we want. The artists who applied for this exhibition definitely know how to do it.

They can levitate with a goddess, float above rooftops, and sail to the future. They know the songs of those who can fly. They can poise between dimensions and break the laws of physics. In the morning fly over the sea, they will meet phoenixes and find harmony and freedom.

Their name is Artist.

The winners of the contest are:

Curators Award — “Goddess” Elena Zapassky

Gallery Award — “Journey to the Future” Nana Mchedlishvili

Public Vote Award — “Travel Dreams” Olga Rikun
