A curious exploration of Paris-based Ukrainian-born artist, Sergio Ostroverhy, whose 15 year relationship with his large scale unfinished icon painting has pushed him to the margins as he races to complete it.

The painting is a 2.5m × 2m hyper-real depiction of a well known American figure modelled on an erotic Italian sculpture, which looms large over Sergio’s studio and has cost him nearly everything.
