Denis Forkas Kostromitin

Moscow, Russia based artist  Denis Forkas Kostromitin, born in a town of Kamyshin on the Volga river.

My work is the result of an on-going research of the occult, philosophy, history and various spiritual traditions of the past. I am profoundly inspired by Ancient Greek art, the Renaissance, fin de siècle aesthetics and experiments of early surrealists.

In my studies I attempt to revive the interrupted symbolist tradition and create potent artifacts, which would help me - and the viewers, - penetrate the veil of the routine world. I aim at reinstatement of artistic mysticism, retrieving visuals directly from the Unconscious by dint of meditation and ritual practices.
