A focused presentation of selected works from Vladimir Kordiukov’s enamel collection, Images on White brings together a small constellation of iconic pieces from the artist’s long-standing engagement with fire, metal, and myth. These works are not fragments — they are precisions. Each one captures a crystallized gesture of sacred narrative, filtered through heat, oxidation, and structural rhythm.

In Kordiukov’s enamel-based works, we witness a return to the artist’s earliest foundations — the precision and refinement of jewelry-making. Trained in decorative and applied arts, he transforms the traditionally meticulous medium of hot enamel into a space of painterly experimentation. Enamel here is layered, etched, poured, contrasted with hand-forged copper, assemblage, riveted steel, and fragments of paper and pigment. These are not flat icons — they are constructions: glowing, weighty, symbolic.

Across this body of work — now numbering nearly 150 pieces — enamel shifts from delicate linework to dense chromatic fields, often supported or interrupted by metal structures. Copper becomes not just frame but voice: hammered, bent, oxidized. The result is a series of hybrid objects — somewhere between painting and relief, between relic and mechanism.
