Anastasia Kuznetsova-RufHourglass, 2016 ·
(from the “Out of series” series)
Canvas, tempera, charcoal pencil · 100 × 80 cm · Russia

Captured on an 80x106 canvas with charcoal pencil and tempera in 2016, the artwork titled "Hourglass" encapsulates the profound essence of adult life — the irreplaceable currency of time. It eludes purchase, circumvention, or reclamation, yet it can be generously shared. Children, in their innocent benevolence, bestow their time without reservation. Perhaps it's because they've yet to fathom its ultimate worth, or perhaps it stems from a wellspring of spiritual magnanimity. In either case, this act of giving has the potential to significantly extend the tapestry of adult existence.
