23 (2020) Sculptuur door Larisa Ruy

There are a lot of opinions about the number 23. Various directions and studies speak of an unusual property that affects it. Numerology, physiology, genetics, astrology, mathematics, physics, religion - all find a direct connection and control in the world by this number. Many researchers, on the basis of historical facts, events, argue that the number 23 carries with it some higher knowledge and accompanies some mystical, or simply unusual events. The Reverend Archimandrite George Mkheidze saw in this figure a mystery around which the world revolves: “If you don’t do this, then you will sin before the Lord, and you will experience the punishment for your sin that will befall you” (32:23) Since number is a kind of semantic code that describes the world, people, space, respectively, its not fully studied influence, has its positive or destructive aspect, depending on conceptually different opinions, perceptions, levels of thinking, etc. The first two works with butterflies, surprisingly for me, turned out with the same number of characters - twenty-three, which could not but involve me in studying this aspect. There was a desire to see through creativity all the manifestations and influences of this number. Not being an adherent of any one particular direction, it was very interesting to use introspective practice for this. What can I say?) For me personally, this is the number of a very strong transformation, potentially new opportunities, bordering on extremely impossible states, where change is inevitable. This is an opportunity to move to another level of awareness and perception of the world. This is the subtlest quintessence of knowing oneself and identifying in this world. My practice of symbolism opened up another facet for me. For people who are focused on the cognition process, lies on the value level - pictures with butterflies will help very quickly get involved in the process and go through threshold (difficult) states
