    "Glancing at" - a series of relief portraits carved in stone, with faces in three quarters or in profile, as if peeking out of the thickness of the untreated stone, out of the mysterious veil of non-negotiation. Giving the stone anthropomorphic features, the sculptor brings an element of special animation, creating conditions for dialogue, a clue for the viewer, which opens the possibility of communication.
    Leaving the image unfinished, the master opens a vast space for the sound of the same original form from which the image is born; without depriving the material of its primary properties, preserves its texture, texture, accidental chips and cracks, reflecting the "life" of the stone.

    Dmytro believes that art is created in order to serve people, to inspire them, and it should be born under the influence of emotions. The master mainly works with clay, "captures" the emotional sound of the material, which does not allow the creation to harden within the conventional.
    Each portrait created by the master has its own unique story, color, ornament, and everything is interconnected. "The sculpture fills the space with images inherent in its materials, and breathes in space with its shape," says Dmitry Grek.
