1997年生于俄罗斯阿尔汉格尔斯克,现工作和生活于德国柏林。巴兹尔曾在杜塞尔多夫艺术学院和维也纳美术学院学习。
巴兹尔的作品以绘画为基础,采用夸张的平面构图,融入纺织品、瘀伤和面部特征等解剖元素以及各种主题物品的细节。他的作品主要侧重于在各种迭代的家庭空间中进行自我肖像描绘,其中经常包括镜子、水、眼镜、手机等物品;所有这些物品都具有反映我们的身体自我和我们的认知身份的文字和形象内涵。在这些内省式的作品中,巴兹尔经常使用多个自画像来表现各种叙事性人物和对自我的反思。这些人物经常相互影响,创造出一种对内部心理的剖析式描绘,通过其乐趣和孤独感,以多层次的方式探索内省。
Bron in 1997, in Arkhangelsk, Russia, lives and works in Berlin. Basil has studied at The Kunstakademie, Düsseldorf and The Academy of Fine Art, Vienna.
With a prodigious attention to drawing as the basis of his practice, Basil’s compositions are constructed from exaggerated flat planes infused with heightened details of textiles, anatomical elements such as bruises and facial features, alongside various thematic objects. Predominantly focusing on self-portraiture within various iterations of the domestic space, his compositions regularly include objects such as mirrors, water, glasses, mobile phones; all of which hold both literal and figurative connotations of reflections both of our physical selves and our perceived identity. For these introspective compositions, Basil oftentimes employs the use of multiple self-portraits into a variety of narrative characters and reflections on the self. The figures often interact with one another creating a dissected depiction of the interior psychology that explores introspection in a layered manner through both its pleasures and isolation.
