The ascetic and geometrically considered construction of the painting refers us to the composition implemented by genius Rodchenko in his photograph “The Staircase”. Absence of horizon and artificially narrowed perspective, scant color palette and the character torn from the ambient context, who is hesitating to make the first step — all of it creates a troublous atmoshere of waiting. We are about to receive an answer to the simple question — what is better: oppressive inaction or taking the plunge into the unexplored.
