Abstract

This article examines the work of Vladimir Zhukovsky, a theorist and practitioner of contemporary art. The philosophical and theoretical discoveries presented in Vladimir Ilyich’s numerous articles and monographs are reflected in his artistic work, which possesses a distinctive visual language. A key element of his work is his fundamental commitment to co-creation. The artist works with a variety of materials: from traditional paints, canvas, and wood to everyday objects. Each piece is born from a playful dialogue between artist and material, with wood of any species and condition occupying a special place, capable of expressing both traditional iconographic imagery and generating innovative art objects. The article presents an analysis of the “DIKZVE” collection, published in 2013 in the album “TYTO.” The works included in this series represent the creative collaboration between the artist and wood, revealing the theme of the conflict between natural freedom and captivity, the complex understanding of “wildness” and “brutality”
