Anastasia Kuznetsova-RufSpyglass, 2016 ·
(from the “From the HOLIDAY to the HOLIDAY” series)
Canvas, charcoal pencil, tempera · 80 × 110 cm · Russia

A mother and her daughter engage in a playful enactment of a ship's captain and first mate. They peer through an improvised telescope, embodying the notion of an adult's perspective on the world, a lens through which education unfolds.

Guiding a child's attention toward genuine life objectives is a formidable responsibility for any adult. It involves imparting the skill of foresight, and teaching the art of discernment, all while refraining from imposing one's own perspective as the sole truth. In doing so, we lay the foundation for the guiding principles that will shape the next generation's journey through life.
