About art work
This art work is symbolic for the artist since it is based on the previous artwork triptych, ‘MY GOLDEN FISH’ (2016). Directly related to the author, as previously stated, in the family and among relatives , the artist’s nickname was ‘Goldfish’.
What the goldfish symbolizes is beauty, kindness, wish fulfillment, wisdom, and justice. The goldfish is a fictional image from a fairy tale by Alexander Pushkin (1833). In this picture, we see a lot of goldfish living in a comfortable environment of cryptocurrency. Choosing the name for the work, the artist also wanted to call this work - ‘Favorable Waters’, because this work (with its logos on the water) represents impregnation - saturation of water with cryptocurrency. Because of that, you can see how beautiful and interesting they are.
