The nature of Modern Art is based on reflection-expression. Art is very different from science. Art is a figurative perception of reality, dominated by the Individual; Art also reflects the Common, but this Common (typical) is shown to us in concrete, living images.
Art seeks to comprehend aesthetics in reality itself. It is as if it illustrates the clash (battle) of the problems of being an individual with the crisis of all civilization.
At the heart of the work of Lana Haivor (www.lanahaivor.com), as a vivid contemporary artist, lies the phenomenological method. It states: The physical world is a set of meanings that attract and direct people in their consciousness to art. As a result, art becomes a way of manifesting being, through which it is given to consciousness. That is to say, works of art are objects with a hidden potential, or in other words, they are phenomena.
A person in art can go through three stages or be "stuck" in one of them:
1. Man accepts the world as it is and the world "accepts" man as it is.
2. A direct confrontation (battle) with the real world in which one defends and asserts one's personal interests.
3: The inability to find "support" in the world around leads to the Great Shock, which forces man to eventually turn to his inner self. After this realization of his imminent mortality, the person opens up in a completely different way and radically changes his attitude toward being. The closest technology to the realization of such changes is ART.
