Sergey Reznikov, working in graphic technology and being an architect by training, included architectural and geometric elements in his works, meticulously beat the interaction of form, light and shadow.

Reznikov's work is a series of experiments, each of which is determined more by the results of previous experiments than by external circumstances. The study of the visual language - lines and spots, their ability to transmit light, space, time, in their drama and complexity resembling the interweaving of human destinies, all these are necessary steps for the development of experimental work. An immense variety of tasks opens before the artist along this path. He parses the world like an onion, looks into it like a Chinese ball in a ball.
