Look narrowly at his works and liberate your imagination. This is the only way to grasp the mysterious world of Konstantin Antyukhin's images. Through associations, hints and transformations the master reveals us the mystery of different reality. He creates the Universe with its own laws and its own hierarchy. Like Paracelsus, he creates the world of homunculuses, nurtures them in his imagination, gives them a shape and endows them with some mystical meaning.

Fantastical creatures penetrate deep into our consciousness and force us to think about some next worlds, about something mysterious, about beauty and its relativity. The world of these «freaks» is harmonious and highly adjusted, they are all-sufficient both in the fantasies of the master and in his etchings. It seems sometimes that those ugly chimeras, strange animals and phantasmagoric creatures live their own life, and the artist only fixes that life on the paper.
