Painting by Bohdan Burenko

Waiting for…” is a painting about the state of uncertainty and anticipation. It invites the viewer to reflect on that moment when time seems to pause, and answers are yet to come. Anxiety, doubt, and hope intertwine, creating a space charged with emotional tension. This work is executed in the artist’s distinctive style, which they call pragmatic expressionism. This approach ensures that emotions and the viewer’s experience are not left to chance — they are meticulously crafted and directed. Every element of the painting, every line or splash of color, is designed to evoke a precise and deliberate impression. In “Waiting for…”, the expression does not merely convey the artist’s feelings — it is aimed at engaging the viewer in their own internal dialogue. This pragmatic approach to art ensures that the emotional impact is as carefully calibrated as the composition and colors. The painting becomes not just a visual image but a provocation to contemplate time, waiting, and what lies ahead.
