1ih4 / Back to the Future - {$M} (2025) 描画 Leni Smoragdova によって

This is "Back to the Future - {$M}" from 2009 / 2025.
A series of artworks.

In the summer of 2023, I left for the countryside to complete unfinished work. The previous year, I had discovered a large number of pieces started but left incomplete since 2002. This series is dedicated to works created up to 2011.

In 2012, I conceived the world of Transaction Art, and everything changed: the signature on my works, my style, and my use of form, color, composition—even my own identity. Back then, my signature resembled a capital "A," a truncated version of the Star of David.

2011 marks the period before Transaction Art.
2012 marks the era of Transaction Art.

For an artist, it is important to adhere to a particular style in their career. The works created before 2012 consisted of creative experiments—details that, from 2012 onward, would become recognizable elements of Transaction Art.

By finishing these abandoned drawings, started 15 years ago, I gained the freedom to experiment creatively. After all, they were made before Transaction Art.
