About the Artist

Tima Aflitunov is a visual communicator based on Planet Earth. His artwork is often driven by imaginative ideas and concepts. When Tima is not illustrating or designing, he enjoys writing, literature, exploring language and history. For Tima, as an immigrant in a foreign country, art became a key to the language barrier and an important outlet for self expression.

Artist's Statement

I solidified my interest in art from the realization that knowing multiple languages doesn't solve the barrier of universal communication. Linguistics alone are too limited to be able to express ideas, emotions and concepts, which are not written in letters or characters as they are felt, conceived or manifested. Our thoughts, emotions, sensations, memories, and experiences are the things that define and identify us.
