The artist’s new project continues a long-standing reflection on the reliability of knowledge about the surrounding world.
Triumph Gallery presents a solo exhibition by Nikolai Onishchenko, Mixed Forest. The artist’s new project continues a long-standing reflection on the reliability of knowledge about the surrounding world. Isolated from a generalized forest landscape, individual trees are presented in various variations, transformed and deformed on paper. In this way, the artist calls into question the main "principle" of the forest element — harmony. In his works, he reimagines reality, depicting scenes of nature’s self-destruction.
"What if, due to our insensitivity, nature could break free, reveal another side of itself, and disrupt our привычные представления about its laws?" — this question became the starting point of Nikolai Onishchenko’s project. The rhythmically structured exhibition contrasts with the content of the works, presenting a systematization of individual scenes that demonstrate the atomization of natural wholeness.

The exhibition is based on a series of monochrome graphic sheets depicting split trees, tied into knots and bending in different directions. The artist employs minimal expressive means — most of the works are executed in a single format using pencil technique, drawing attention to the material’s plastic qualities. An important part of the project is a sound installation created with an analog synthesizer. The exhibition design features the color "Northern Blueberry," which serves as a unifying element for both displays.
