The indefinite, abstract space of the described work was shaped by the artist in an extremely dynamic way. The effect of incessant movement, as if taken out of Heraclitus' Greek thought "panta rhei," was further enhanced by expressive accents of color. Tarasin's outstanding work from the early 1990s combines features of his sublime artistic language: simplified forms, geometric shapes, fascination with Far Eastern art and nature. The variety of elements and the "dense" composition of the painting create a specific, harmonious whole.
