Pyramids, that I create, have a philosophical and spiritual concept that reflects a balance of opposing forces in human life. Each element of a pyramid is a symbol and allusion.For example: - The bird symbolizes spirituality. - The key is the answer to the questions. The human desire for harmonious development is emphasized in the pictures. All elements of a pyramid are interconnected. However, each viewer can find their own correlation of these elements.
