english versionTHE STUDY OF THE LINE IN PRINCIPLE
Welcome to the grafisch-studio!
Allow me to introduce myself – Ryn Shaparenko.
Below you can find the results of my “studying the line in principle”. There are three section, witch I’m trying to discover. The first one is “Field Studies”, the second one is “Mechanoids” and the last one is “Organoids”. It the very beginning I thought, it would be easy, but…
My questions are:
What makes a line divide?
The plane. And what next…?
Is it two planes now, or still one but divided? And if it becomes several planes and lines, what will be seen: lines or planes? Are they will isolated or will they still belong together? Apart from that a line can be thick or thin. But if the line is thick, will it still going to be a line or will it “mutate” into a plane?
Is paper able to answer that question by itself?

Forgive my message in English. Unfortunately, I do not speak German. However, I very much enjoy your artwork. You were exhibiting at a small art fair in Berlin in early September. I was visting Berlin at the time on vacation and happened to walk by and admire your work. I regret that I was unable to speak with you about it at the time. However, I took one of your business cards and finally found time to visit your website. Please let me know if you ever plan to have an exhibit in New York City. I would love an opportunity to see more of your work and perhaps purchase a few pieces.
