- The Debut Of The Multidisciplinary Artist Konstantin Chaykin
At the beginning of winter 2024, the Elohovskiy Gallery in Moscow hosted a personal exhibition of Russian watchmaker and inventor Konstantin Chaykin. This first large-scale retrospective of the master’s work marked a new milestone in his creative journey. From now on, he is not only a watchmaker but also a recognized artist.
At the exhibition, Chaykin showcased a series of paintings he created, inspired by the concept of time, its measurement, and the philosophical associations it evokes. A striking example is the painting "Time Struct" where technical abstraction reveals anthropomorphic features, or "The Sandmann" in which a watch dial transforms into a portrait. The protagonists of these paintings are the details and components of watch movements. On canvas, they come together as living figures: in the painting "Sedmitsa" they form a charming young woman, while in "The Attachment" they depict a mother with her child under a bright sun.
All the characters evoke an immediate emotional response, much like Chaykin's best-selling watches from the Wristmons collection.
