The exhibition features vibrant still lifes, surreal compositions, expressively deformed interiors, and unexpected visual illusions. Each work by the artist invites the viewer to explore the boundaries between reality and imagination. Oil paints on canvas, ceramic objects, and other classic materials in Baigaliyev's works create the impression of digital effects, as if they were transferred from animation screens, but their essence remains deeply canonical and material.
