Face To The Jungle

Kirill and Anastasia Abramova

“A mural project that fuses intuitive abstraction with psychological excavation”

Executed directly onto the architectural surfaces, the work dissolves the boundary between landscape and inner vision.

Instead of offering representational clarity,- face to the Jungle welcomes the viewer into a terrain of deliberate ambiguity — a space where the mind drifts, reorients, and momentarily gets lost. It seeks not to depict nature, but to reflect the tangled mental thickets we navigate daily.

The mural becomes a map for the unconscious

—an invitation to rediscover the self: stranger, more fluid, and intimately bound to the wild.

Kirill Abramov describes his method as one of sustained observation — a prolonged gaze that continues until the object dissolves into pure perception. Only in that collapse does the act of painting begin. This deliberate delay in representation opens space for something more elusive: an aesthetic system in which meaning is not imposed but allowed to emerge, organically, through visual pressure.

“My goal is to systematize confusion and to contribute, in my own way, to the full discrediting of so-called reality.”

In Face to the Jungle, painting becomes more than surface — it becomes a spatial proposition.

A visual environment meant to draw the viewer out of the known and into the intuitive, unstructured terrain of the psyche. It is a call to inhabit the wild both around and within.
