Bringing his own vision of iconographic images, he created the series “Wooden Spring”, two works from which were included in the project “Dialectics of Hope”. In his creative plans, Seva aims to deepen his authorial style, drawing on Old Russian art and the traditions of the Old Russian icon. 

“I paint what I want and love. I share the beauty I see and feel, leaving the viewer space for their own feelings and thoughts. I always dream of one thing: to be and remain free”, – Seva Boytsov. 

In the work “Zvezdovorot,” the artist reflects on the cyclical nature of processes in human life and in nature—a cyclicality that gives us confidence and hope that everything will come true and all will be well.  

"When stars fall, we make our most cherished wishes, and this very moment is a pure moment of hope. Yet at the same time, stars also rise into their orbits. Together, these phenomena form Zvezdovorot. The hope that a dream will come true goes hand in hand with this process, recurring time and again".
